The Free Land of United States of Mitch is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, democratic population of 318 million Mitchians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mitch Town. The average income tax rate is 51.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Mitchian economy, worth 26.1 trillion Gold bars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 82,142 Gold bars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

They say that Mitchians made a dessert and called it peace, the nation has nearly as many history museums as Mitchians, busy commuters no longer hear the cries of "I want some more!" on the nation's streets, and the Finance Ministry posts hourly updates on where taxpayer money is spent. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. United States of Mitch's national animal is the Liger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

United States of Mitch is ranked 221,825^th in the world and 7,342^nd in the South Pacific for Most Politically Apathetic Citizens, with 43.65 Whatever.
