The Commonwealth of Millora is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its irreverence towards religion, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 582 million Millorans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stuart. The average income tax rate is 75.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Milloran economy, worth 29.1 trillion Mills a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 50,048 Mills, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

When their backs are against the walls Millorans look out for gay men, the government says only criminals harp on about "innocent until proven guilty", terrorism and assassination are tried-and-true methods of political activism, and a five-year-old and a convicted terrorist can sit alongside one another in jury service. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Millora's national animal is the Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Millora is ranked 193,688th in the world and 110th in Refugia for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -2.28 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
