The Desert People of Mirahge is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by General Chekman with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, ban on automobiles, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 35.15 billion Mirahgeans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government prioritizes Administration, although Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Falorn. The average income tax rate is 97.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Mirahgean economy, worth a remarkable 9,452 trillion Memes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 268,912 Memes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Children gain their first sex education from reading the dictionary, hordes of tourists are ruining the environment, prison walls have had to be modified to keep parkour-trained criminals from escaping, and new arrivals are asked the location of the Minister of the Interior's birthmark. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mirahge's national animal is the Salamander, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Grilled Cheese.

Mirahge is ranked 3,509th in the world and 9th in Canada for Most Stationary, with 3,677.66431296 days.
