The Commonwealth of Tranquility Antioch is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Sovereign with an iron fist, and notable for its frequent executions, pith helmet sales, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10 billion Tranquility Antiochians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt morass — juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mesopotamia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 88.7%.
The frighteningly efficient Tranquility Antiochian economy, worth 915 trillion Gold coins a year, is highly specialized and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Furniture Restoration, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 91,520 Gold coins, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.
The government has legalised small-scale capitalism, advanced mathematics books explain how two plus two equals five, the military has forsaken terrestrial warfare, and pulling weeds is seen as a threat to national security. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tranquility Antioch's national animal is the falcon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Melchizedek.
Tranquility Antioch is ranked 18,002nd in the world and 11th in Ancient for Most Stationary, with 1,692.97587482808 days.
