The MikesHope Essence of Mikeswill is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Mike with a fair hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, keen interest in outer space, and unlimited-speed roads. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 44.693 billion Mikes live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Austin. The average income tax rate is 97.1%.

The frighteningly efficient the Will of Mike economy, worth an astonishing 20,764 trillion Kisses a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 464,611 Kisses, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,922,627 per year while the poor average 73,711, a ratio of 26.1 to 1.

Bins outnumber trees in city parks, the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, boys who take just one date to the high school prom are called 'losers', and children have lost interest in toy guns in favor of toy meth lab kits. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Mikeswill's national animal is the Dream Mirror, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Agnostic Pantheism.

Mikeswill is ranked 292,242nd in the world and 752nd in NationStates for Lowest Crime Rates, with 6.69 law-abiding acts per hour.
