The Dominion of Tasion is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 247 million Tasionians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 68.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Tasionian economy, worth 3.35 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Trout Farming. Average income is 13,568 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crop circles are intently studied by investigators with questionable merits, a large concrete wall is being built around the country's borders, Tasionian watches list strained wrists as a common side effect, and excessive wheelchair ramps on government buildings have been compared to theme park attractions. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tasion's national animal is the kiwi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tasion is ranked 246,330^th in the world and 2^nd in Raider force test region for Most Extensive Public Healthcare, scoring 781.24 on the Theresa-Nightingale Rating.
