The Federal Republic of Tysoania is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by President Mark Trenton with a fair hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, ubiquitous missile silos, and lack of airports. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 14.327 billion Tysoanians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sulphur Springs. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Tysoanian economy, worth a remarkable 2,801 trillion dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 195,537 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People faint regularly as they get stuck with compulsory vaccinations, the government has declared its commitment to multilateralism, nobody is allowed to stop the local daycare from reading Nietzsche to pre-schoolers, and the nation has an international reputation for compassion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tysoania's national animal is the mountain lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is secularism.

Tysoania is ranked 144,738^th in the world and 18^th in The Winter Moon Empire for Most Pro-Market, scoring -72.11 on the Rand Index.
