The Community of Midgardinca is a mid-sized, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 56 million Tau'ris enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 76.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Midgardincan economy, worth 1.10 trillion Gold Dubloons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Furniture Restoration, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 19,559 Gold Dubloons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Feuilletons can only be deciphered with a Galliennais dictionary, the government supplies ragtag bands of resistance fighters in exchange for vague promises of future payment, holiday light displays just aren't the same without seizure-inducing strobe effects, and maybe the real economic growth was the friendship we've made along the way. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Midgardinca's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Midgardinca is ranked 160,606^th in the world and 434^th in Horizon for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 490.95 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
