The Communist Democracy of Tsandonown is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Banios with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 2.931 billion Tsandonians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of St Veytam. The average income tax rate is 67.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Tsandonownian economy, worth 211 trillion Owions a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Pizza Delivery, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 72,033 Owions, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Programmes of questionable content are shown at peak-hours, Tsandonown has one of the largest offshore wind farms in the world, hundreds of subterranean tunnels are being built as part of "Project Morlock", and Tsandonown is notorious for its citizens' infidelity. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tsandonown's national animal is the seahorse, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Yunuthanti.
