The Arctic Nomads of Taloren is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its aversion to nipples, public floggings, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 11.626 billion Talorenians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Administration, with Industry, Healthcare, and Environment also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Taloren City. The average income tax rate is 95.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Talorenian economy, worth a remarkable 2,358 trillion Koronas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Retail, Furniture Restoration, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 202,847 Koronas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Immigrants complain that natives keep coming over and taking their jobs, members of majority races are forced out of their homes to make way for Bigtopians, many believe that you can't repeat history's mistakes if you don't care what they were, and toxic smog is dismissed as the populace just "letting off steam". Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Taloren's national animal is the Dragonfly, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Taloren is ranked 94,319th in the world and 38th in Rushmore for Most Stationary, with 482.5761842066 days.
