The Timelords of Magician Republic is a massive, safe nation, notable for its hatred of cheese. Its hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.752 billion are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, moralistic government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Education. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gallifrey. The average income tax rate is 98%. Private enterprise is illegal, but for those in the know there is a slick and highly efficient black market in Information Technology.

Government-run brothels can be found on every street corner, people regularly disappear off the streets and all evidence of them is destroyed, prosecutors routinely call transplant doctors as 'expert witnesses' in burglary cases, and the sound of wooden legs echo throughout Magician Republic after the recent introduction of the Foot Tax. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Magician Republic's national animal is the Dalek, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Time Piece.

Magician Republic is ranked 10,834th in the world for Healthiest Citizens, with 10 Standard Bananas Ingested per capita per day.
