The Imperial Republic of Holy Tedalonia is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, anti-smoking policies, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 9.598 billion Tedalonians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Healthcare, and Education are also considered important, while Welfare and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tedstantinople. The average income tax rate is 39.4%.
The frighteningly efficient Tedalonian economy, worth a remarkable 1,305 trillion Toins a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 136,038 Toins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.
Artists attempt to convince the Hardship Fund that their unmade bed is a masterpiece, funeral directors are frequently looking at their watches during funerals, the arms industry is backed by government subsidies and harsh anti-protest laws are in place, and customer satisfaction with online delivery services is at an all time high. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Holy Tedalonia's national animal is the Direwolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Holy Tedalonia is ranked 23,334th in the world and 1st in The Imperial Court for Most Developed, scoring 80.15 on the Human Development Index.
