The Democratic Republic of Taentermatown is a huge, genial nation, notable for its compulsory military service, otherworldly petting zoo, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 497 million Taentermatownians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Welfare, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 23.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Taentermatownian economy, worth 27.2 trillion Ranhtos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 54,634 Ranhtos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

For just a few extra Ranhtos Taentermatownians can get new driving records with their new cars, old dogs don't have to learn new tricks but they have to prove they haven't forgotten old ones, every politician claims to be at least 1% Native Taentermatownian, and Taentermatown City's main city thoroughfare has been blocked by a row of leyland cypresses that mysteriously appeared overnight. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Taentermatown's national animal is the Whale, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Taentermatown is ranked 43,702^nd in the world and 192^nd in Conch Kingdom for Healthiest Citizens, with 6.28 bananas ingested per day.
