The Grand Duchy of Miyoshi Shogunate is a very large, cultured nation, renowned for its infamous sell-swords, complete lack of prisons, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 125 million Miyoshi Shogunateans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 32.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Miyoshi Shogunatean economy, worth 6.13 trillion Kobans a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Furniture Restoration, and Gambling. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 49,002 Kobans, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Little kids often wonder why strange grown-ups are following them around the soft play areas, a ban on unsolicited cold calling in all forms is in effect, Maxtopian villagers starve by the time Miyoshi Shogunatean officials even file the appropriate paperwork needed to help them, and a small country is wondering where their capitol building's gold dome went. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Miyoshi Shogunate's national animal is the Emu, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Miyoshi Shogunate is ranked 177,715^th in the world and 69^th in Japan for Most Corrupt Governments, with 3.1 kickbacks per hour.
