The Ubiquitous missile silos of Mushroom Gorge is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by anarchy with an iron fist, and renowned for its absence of drug laws, suspicion of poets, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.327 billion Mushroom Gorgers enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.
The relatively small, corrupt, liberal, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mushroom City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.8%.
The frighteningly efficient Mushroom Gorger economy, worth 443 trillion Mushroom credits a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Gambling. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 102,520 Mushroom credits, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 329,743 per year while the poor average 24,142, a ratio of 13.7 to 1.
Labour strikes are routinely squashed by police, the Mushroom Gorger cut of Apocalypse Now sets the helicopter scene to eerie silence, farm turkeys are given high doses of antidepressants to take their minds off the holiday season, and academics have a bone to pick with free market entrepreneurs. Crime is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Mushroom Gorge's national animal is the koopa troopa, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Mushroom Gorge is ranked 11,777th in the world and 6th in Callista for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 6,610.7 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
