The Kingdom of Milostein is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Milo with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, rampant corporate plagiarism, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, cheerful population of 26.994 billion Milosteinis enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large government is primarily concerned with Education, although Administration, Welfare, and Environment are also considered important, while Spirituality receives no funds. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Milosteini economy, worth an astonishing 11,160 trillion shnapsers a year, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 413,444 shnapsers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The carbon footprint falls along with the human footprint during war, droves of former desperados are applying to join the border police, according to the latest national census as many as two-thirds of the respondents possibly consider 'violet' their favorite color, and it's normal to start working life with crippling financial debt. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Milostein's national animal is the crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Milostein is ranked 10,435th in the world and 1st in Under a Rock for Most Cultured, scoring 116 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
