The Wonder of Mr Mystic is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its punitive income tax rates, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 14.383 billion Mr Mysticians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded, outspoken morass — prioritizes Welfare, although Spirituality, Education, and Healthcare are also considered important. The average income tax rate is 77.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Mr Mystician economy, worth 153 trillion Mystical Jewels 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 Furniture Restoration industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 10,699 Mystical Jewels, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mr Mystic's national animal is the Cheshire Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mr Mystic is ranked 72,721^st in the world and 1^st in The Iceberg Lounge for Lowest Crime Rates, with 69.66 law-abiding acts per hour.
