The Resurrection Bunny Farms of Miskunn Systursins is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by the Merciful Freyja Helgadottir with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television, lack of airports, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 15.366 billion Miskunns enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Glaesileika. The average income tax rate is 98.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Miskunnian economy, worth a remarkable 2,149 trillion Vinattus a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 139,877 Vinattus, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A mushroom a day keeps the sadness away, members of the government all have oddly similar anecdotes about their childhoods, racehorses move a lot slower these days, and burnt-out forty-foot-tall wicker men dot the countryside. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Miskunn Systursins's national animal is the White Stag, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Sisterhood of Mercy.

Miskunn Systursins is ranked 4,083rd in the world and 54th in Forest for Safest, scoring 134.2 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
