The Community of Technoscience Leftwing is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Maxim Ross with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, ubiquitous missile silos, and daily referendums. The compassionate, humorless population of 12.403 billion teslanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Futurograd. The average income tax rate is 98.9%.

The frighteningly efficient teslanian economy, worth a remarkable 3,320 trillion denznaks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 267,705 denznaks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The latest electric jet fighter has almost enough battery charge to reach cruising altitude -- provided you don't use the radar, stern tutting by international commentators has persuaded Technoscience Leftwing to disarm, fashion stores are exploding in sales as clothing is reintroduced to the country, and the national Police Academies have dedicated infant wings. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Technoscience Leftwing's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Scientific atheism.

Technoscience Leftwing is ranked 24,545^th in the world and 36^th in The Communist Bloc for Largest Mining Sector, scoring 8,086.47 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
