The Republic of Tunio is a colossal, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, infamous sell-swords, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 6.203 billion Tunioans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tiraville. The average income tax rate is 43.0%.

The Tunioan economy, worth 274 trillion Crabas a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining. Average income is 44,202 Crabas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tunio's national animal is the Egret, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
