The Republic of Misiotoliot is a very large, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory military service, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 230 million Misiotoliotians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Spirituality, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.6%.

The very strong Misiotoliotian economy, worth 15.9 trillion Sotoliots a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Basket Weaving, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 69,016 Sotoliots, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 249,243 per year while the poor average 13,648, a ratio of 18.3 to 1.

Any body part that can be cut off a person is no longer considered to be their property, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, schools have extensive counseling programs for troubled students, and citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force. Misiotoliot's national animal is the Suotiropap sotoliot, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Misiotoliot is ranked 93,305^th in the world and 5^th in Raspberry Commune for Most Cultured, scoring 67 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
