The Dictatorship of Myness is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Dominus with an iron fist, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, hatred of cheese, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, cynical population of 8.18 billion Mynessians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mypolis. The average income tax rate is 92.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Mynessic economy, worth 791 trillion mynors a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming and Tourism. Average income is 96,779 mynors, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Mynessians teach life's not worth a damn 'til you can shout out 'I am what I am', hell is not always other people, advertisers scramble to sponsor the broadcast of The Dominus's most personal functions, and aggravated apostrophe abusers are admonished and assaulted. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Myness's national animal is the calamander, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Myness is ranked 7,272nd in the world and 173rd in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 107.29 law-abiding acts per hour.
