The Constitutional Monarchy of Tomitania is a massive, genial nation, remarkable for its restrictive gun laws. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 2.474 billion love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Education, although Social Equality and Healthcare are on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 94%, and even higher for the wealthy. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

Max Barry is this year's Miss Tomitania, mothers are routinely abandoning their children in the name of women's rights, the government pours millions of Bancors into rehabilitation programs annually, and crooks and people with too many kids are being kicked out of the country. Crime is totally unknown. Tomitania's national animal is the Grizzly Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Bancor.

Tomitania is ranked 3rd in Hippietania and 98,024th in the world for Most Authoritarian, with 0.059 Stalins.
