The Protectorate of Muggkaahn is a mid-sized, cultured nation, notable for its compulsory vegetarianism, frequent executions, and infamous sell-swords. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 92 million Pyisuur are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Spirituality, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 72.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Pyisuur economy, worth 2.48 trillion coiled-twigs 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 Tourism industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Cheese Exports, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 27,002 coiled-twigs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Five-year-olds chanting "Little Miss Muffet" are accused of bullying arachnophobes, every day is laundry day, half the Pyisuur Army consists of Brasilistani contractors, and finding half a worm in your apple is an arrestable offense. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Muggkaahn's national animal is the water strider, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Muggkaahn is ranked 56,098th in the world and 73rd in Karma for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,787.27 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
