The Queen's State of Muze is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by the Governor with an iron fist, and renowned for its complete absence of social welfare. The hard-working, cynical population of 22.706 billion Muzeans are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Spirituality, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 19.8%.

The thriving Muzean economy, worth 666 trillion betales a year, is highly specialized and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Pizza Delivery, and Book Publishing. Average income is 29,331 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 82,797 per year while the poor average 8,318, a ratio of 10.0 to 1.

Muze has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, the Governor has just been declared ruler of Muze in an international press conference, travellers are often forcibly evicted by torch-bearing mobs, and former arsonists can be found on local fire brigades. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Muze's national animal is the deer.

Muze is ranked 89,952nd in the world and 1st in Thimphu for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 3,695.36 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
