The Dominion of Ters Khus is a massive, safe nation, ruled by the First Consul with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, soft-spoken computers, and otherworldly petting zoo. The quiet, industrious population of 1.634 billion Ters Khusians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government prioritizes Education, with Administration, Industry, and Defense also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Verdistis. The average income tax rate is 62.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ters Khusian economy, worth 205 trillion piasters a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 125,837 piasters, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Counselors have to sign pledges supporting gay rights before they can speak to any patients, the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, the latest superhero movie features a caped black fox with adamantium claws, and students are known to arrive at school in their pyjamas. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ters Khus's national animal is the black fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ters Khus is ranked 272,932nd in the world and 1,201st in Europeia for Most Patriotic, with 0.69 flags saluted per person per day.
