The Queen's State of Tasman Province is a gargantuan, genial nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic population of 30.519 billion Tasman Provinceans 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 medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 31.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The enormous but inefficient Tasman Provincean economy, worth a remarkable 1,049 trillion betales a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 34,372 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Billions of dollars are being poured into a space program, education and welfare spending are on the rise, the nation has opened its arms to an influx of refugees, and the people elect the Supreme Court justices directly. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tasman Province's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tasman Province is ranked 178,638^th in the world and 5^th in Tasmania for Most Primitive, scoring -69.77 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
