The Holy Incorruptible Tsardom of TURTLESHROOM II is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Tsars Outtacountry and Vacant and Wip with an even hand, and remarkable for its teetotalling pirates, rampant corporate plagiarism, and daily referendums. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 20.409 billion TurtleShroomers are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jonesboro. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient TurtleShroomian economy, worth a remarkable 8,788 trillion Scrips a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 430,623 Scrips, with the richest citizens earning 9.1 times as much as the poorest.

Libraries are now installed with jacuzzis and mini-bars, female smokers cut their hair and don suits to get into male-only clubs, vegetables are crisper thanks to CRISPR, and constituents prefer a carrot and boomstick approach to dealing with politicians. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. TURTLESHROOM II's national animal is the Nangnang, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

TURTLESHROOM II is ranked 1,144th in the world and 2nd in Valkia for Most Corrupt Governments, with 453.09 kickbacks per hour.
