The Armed Republic of Mjolni is a colossal, cultured nation, renowned for its daily referendums, free-roaming dinosaurs, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 8.712 billion Mjolnians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ratatoskr. The average income tax rate is 85.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Mjolnian economy, worth a remarkable 1,740 trillion Acorns a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 199,733 Acorns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Talkative students are escorted from schools in second-hand prison buses, neon signs promoting safe driving often distract drivers, a ban on robots in disguise has transformed the entertainment industry, and feeling like a winner comes at a price. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mjolni's national animal is the Squirrel, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Odinism.

Mjolni is ranked 8,863rd in the world and 141st in the Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 66.49 flags saluted per person per day.
