The Ubiquitous missile silos of Mushroom Gorge is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by anarchy with an iron fist, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, ubiquitous missile silos, and anti-smoking policies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 5.874 billion Mushroom Gorgers are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mushroom City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 17.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Mushroom Gorger economy, worth 603 trillion Mushroom credits a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 102,656 Mushroom credits, with the richest citizens earning 7.5 times as much as the poorest.

It's hunting season on loan sharks, lottery winners spend most of their money on security, funerals are often rudely interrupted by juggling clowns shouting for volunteers from the audience, and anyone can get ahead in life if they want to. Crime is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Mushroom Gorge's national animal is the koopa troopa, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Mushroom Gorge is ranked 329,253^rd in the world and 61^st in Callista for Most Pacifist, with 4.33 cheeks turned per day.
