The Theocracy of Technom is a huge, genial nation, notable for its compulsory military service, zero percent divorce rate, and restrictive gun laws. The devout population of 378 million Technomians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Spirituality, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Portland. The average income tax rate is 36.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Technomian economy, worth 27.3 trillion Marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 72,207 Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Politicians are often found scavenging bins at night to supplement their income, only lightning has a chance of striking Leader twice, this year's hottest fashion trend is the Lese Majeste collection, and politicians accost strangers in the street to ask their problems. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Technom's national animal is the Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Technom is ranked 178,714th in the world and 125th in MHBs New Earth for Most Ignorant Citizens, with 3.27 missed references per hour.
