The Republic of Tavok is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by President Ilyra Solen with a fair hand, and renowned for its unlimited-speed roads, daily referendums, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 16.572 billion Tavs hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tyyrik. The average income tax rate is 31.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Tav economy, worth a remarkable 5,513 trillion kovs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 332,699 kovs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Good-looking soldier boys have celebrity status amongst the nation's homosexuals, it is mandatory to learn evolution in schools, dozens of additional foreign policy specialists have been sent to the country's WA Mission, and the nation turns a blind eye to human rights abuses in its quest for athletic supremacy. Crime is totally unknown. Tavok's national animal is the cloudveil leopard, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Tavok is ranked 4,375^th in the world and 4^th in Eurth for Highest Poor Incomes, with 173,798.39 Standard Monetary Units.
