The Republic of Myszkow is a small, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 26 million Myszkowians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 27.8%.

The strong Myszkowian economy, worth 1.06 trillion złoties a year, is led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Automobile Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 40,828 złoties, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

The "boy who cried wolf" policy makes sick people reluctant to call an ambulance, corporations claim the third ounce of any metal traded in a wicker-cone on the Sunday of a full moon as a charitable expense, being nicknamed "Orange Face" has done Leader's credibility no favours, and private businesses are paving paradises to put up parking lots. Crime is moderate. Myszkow's national animal is the python, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Myszkow is ranked 250,612^th in the world and 38^th in Poland for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring 3,724.8 on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
