The Socialist Federation of -Terrapacis- is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by President Elizabeth Robins with a fair hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 10 billion Terrapacisians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Davidston. The average income tax rate is 62.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Terrapacisian economy, worth a remarkable 1,456 trillion Terrapacisian dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 145,633 Terrapacisian dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Nude art is becoming wildly popular, the government frequently panders to parents with boutique tax credits, the nation has an international reputation for compassion, and high-income earners pay a 100% tax rate. Crime is totally unknown. -Terrapacis-'s national animal is the ovenbird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

-Terrapacis- is ranked 32,705th in the world and 6th in Osakaland for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 2,558.65 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
