The Citizens' Republic of Mikeswich is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by President Khan with a fair hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, smutty television, and spontaneously combusting cars. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 3.119 billion Mikeswichians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fort Rho. The average income tax rate is 37.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Mikeswichian economy, worth 518 trillion chans a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 166,154 chans, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's politicians are known more for the internet memes they spawn than any of their accomplishments, accusations of corruption stick when the accused are long-gone, senior citizens can usually be found doing heavy manual labour, and house crows are frequently shot for looking at people 'in a funny way'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Mikeswich's national animal is the house crow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Mikeswich is ranked 65,334^th in the world and 135^th in Wintreath for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 471.94 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
