“Patria, Fortitudo et Victoria”

The Grand Imperial Kingdom of Tillesia is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its national health service. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 519 million have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 66%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining industries.

Recruitment posters proclaim the army to be both fabulous and fashionable, graffiti artists spend lengthy periods of time in jail, the study of medicine is popular throughout Tillesia, and prisons are crowded with possible terrorist suspects. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tillesia's national animal is the Hummingbird, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Tillesian Pound.

Tillesia is ranked 117th in the region and 7,208th in the world for Most Godforsaken.
