The Desert People of Mirahge is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by General Chekman with an even hand, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, sprawling nuclear power plants, and national health service. The compassionate, cheerful population of 35.291 billion Mirahgeans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government prioritizes Administration, with Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Falorn. The average income tax rate is 97.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Mirahgean economy, worth a remarkable 9,539 trillion Memes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 270,309 Memes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Judicial robes are the country's hottest fashion trend, the government regularly hires contractors to construct high rise apartments, asking 'does my bum look big in this?' leads to 30 hours of self-esteem classes, and it's illegal to be caught on tape. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mirahge's national animal is the Salamander, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Grilled Cheese.

Mirahge is ranked 279,048th in the world and 131st in Canada for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 6,217.12 Standard Monetary Units.
