The Holy Empire of Tabret is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Alex David with a fair hand, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, free-roaming dinosaurs, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 6.097 billion Tabretians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Education, although Environment, Industry, and Welfare are also considered important, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Utopia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 91.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Tabretian economy, worth 946 trillion Marks a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 155,303 Marks, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 538,332 per year while the poor average 32,709, a ratio of 16.5 to 1.

There's often a little nagging voice suggesting that parents aren't keeping their kids safe, the slowest students feel vaguely targeted by their Mendelian Inheritance coursework, the government keeps its thumb on the scales of justice, and distrust of taps has many people bathing only with bottled mineral water. Crime is totally unknown. Tabret's national animal is the Werewolve, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tabret is ranked 147,328th in the world and 5,779th in Lazarus for Largest Mining Sector, scoring 2,140.94 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
