The Federation of Midysc is a large, safe nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 126 million Midyscians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 42.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Midyscian economy, worth 7.67 trillion Midezuzatus a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 60,890 Midezuzatus, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government offers gay men mildly offensive tips on how to pass as straight, future forecasters fearfully discuss grey goo and human obsolescence, the nation's laws on image rights are amongst the strictest in the world, and a rolling news ticker tape of disclaimers runs across the bottom of the screen on all TV shows. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Midysc's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Midysc is ranked 239,409^th in the world and 3,054^th in The East Pacific for Rudest Citizens, with 30.03 insults per minute.
