The United Commonwealth of Micharica is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Prime Minister Adrian Köln with an even hand, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 2.522 billion Micharicans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Röslein City. The average income tax rate is 84.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Micharican economy, worth 300 trillion vährungs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 119,236 vährungs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Polling place volunteers are suddenly opening a huge number of offshore bank accounts, public intoxication has decreased ever since fraternities were banned, the government is interviewing for thousands of 'Religious Censor' positions, and helium balloons lift the nation's spacecraft towards the heavens. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Micharica's national animal is the Axolotl, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is None.

Micharica is ranked 19,277^th in the world and 331^st in 10000 Islands for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 265.5 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
