The Galactic kingdom of Tassirion is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Triolan with an even hand, and notable for its public floggings, triple-decker prams, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 7.271 billion Tassirionians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moon. The average income tax rate is 66.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Tassirionian economy, worth a remarkable 1,655 trillion Golds a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 227,638 Golds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

The diplomatic corps tends to open negotiations by insulting all the foreigners in the room, the nation has learned that pulling out is messy, polling place volunteers are suddenly opening a huge number of offshore bank accounts, and private digital records now come with a convenient "download" button. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Tassirion's national animal is the Void Husky, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Tassirion is ranked 14,435^th in the world and 224^th in The East Pacific for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 7,648.28 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
