The Federal Republic of Musaschi is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Count Valencia with an even hand, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, triple-decker prams, and zero percent divorce rate. The compassionate, hard-working population of 4.944 billion Musaschians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ronin. The average income tax rate is 25.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Musaschian economy, worth 486 trillion Saschis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 98,434 Saschis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

50% of adverts on children's television are for clothes made of cotton wool, worried-looking neonatal nurses are being deployed in place of SWAT teams during dangerous drug busts, political scientists despair as the national mascot election eclipses all others in voter enthusiasm, and no-one can foil the ambitions of Big Aluminium. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Musaschi's national animal is the Shiba Inu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Musaschi is ranked 65,294^th in the world and 44^th in Thaecia for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 1,832.6 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
