The Comfy Commonwealth of Toerana V is a massive, safe nation, notable for its soft-spoken computers, state-planned economy, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed population of 1.109 billion Toerana Vians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eboracum. The average income tax rate is 43.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Toerana Vian economy, worth 32.9 trillion Toeranan Pounds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 29,646 Toeranan Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

No-one can foil the ambitions of Big Aluminium, the dartboard at the Toerana Vian Cancer Research Charity bears a picture of Leader's face, artists regularly face criminal charges and art-burning parties are common, and giggling teens are asked to put their mouths on rubber dolls. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Toerana V's national animal is the Llama, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Toerana V is ranked 142,220^th in the world and 4^th in Comfy Mansion for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -5.48 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
