The Allied States of Tonarth is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.411 billion Tonarthians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 36.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Tonarthian economy, worth 79.6 trillion jewels a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 56,420 jewels, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Government theft from poor artists to give to rich allies has been dubbed the "reverse Robin Hood" policy, the nation's weary schoolchildren excel at sport but must count scores on their fingers, couples are discouraged from marrying until they can rank their partner on a scale of one to ten, and hundreds of subterranean tunnels are being built as part of "Project Morlock". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tonarth's national animal is the thogell, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tonarth is ranked 167,592^nd in the world and 5,439^th in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 500.59 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
