The Hyperbole Confederacy of Tamanian is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Chariz of Andenburg with an even hand, and notable for its flagrant waste-dumping, avowedly heterosexual populace, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 15.343 billion Tamanians 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.

The medium-sized, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Law & Order, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Social Policy is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Andenburg. The average income tax rate is 68.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Tamanian economy, worth a remarkable 3,395 trillion Thalmers a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 221,301 Thalmers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

Antique comic book collectors are disappointed to hear that their treasures are worth exactly as little as their mothers said they were, a handful of megacorporations own every "craft brewery" in the nation, Tamanian novella fans become unusually flustered when thinking about Chariz of Andenburg, and the government defends a woman's right to choose. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tamanian's national animal is the Ash Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Tamanian is ranked 13,160^th in the world and 668^th in Osiris for Smartest Citizens, with 79.89 quips per hour.
