The Commonwealth of Mjau is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Mow with a fair hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, soft-spoken computers, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 6.695 billion Mjauans are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aliban. The average income tax rate is 95.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Mjauan economy, worth 935 trillion Mews 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 significant contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 139,741 Mews, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Emergency responders spend more time in the air than giving air, civil engineers are undermining sinkholes, the government seeks peaceful forum with terrorists, and scientists on maritime expeditions return with a healthy glow. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mjau's national animal is the Mockingbird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Mjau is ranked 115,601^st in the world and 87^th in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Largest Populations, with 6.70 billion capita.
