The Imperium of Mitropola is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Great Mitar The IV with an iron fist, and renowned for its digital currency, otherworldly petting zoo, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 1.938 billion Mitropolans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Golden Hills. The average income tax rate is 47.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Mitropolan economy, worth 208 trillion Bitcoins a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 107,493 Bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

Great Mitar The IV is worshipped as a god, sofas are perpetually on sales that Must End Soon, grinding bureaucracy has the international wheels of justice turning slowly, and celebrity foodies are biting a huge chunk out of the government budget. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mitropola's national animal is the Polar Bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Supreme Christianity.

Mitropola is ranked 82,336^th in the world and 3,751^st in The North Pacific for Rudest Citizens, with 56.08 Insults Per Minute.
