The Free Socialist Federation of Timiskrane is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Glen Mairs with a fair hand, and renowned for its complete lack of prisons, keen interest in outer space, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, democratic population of 9.893 billion Timiskraneans 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 large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sudbury. The average income tax rate is 79.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Timiskranean economy, worth a remarkable 1,239 trillion Luminas a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 125,290 Luminas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The tools of the trade for landmine clearance appear to be copious amounts of gasoline and a box of matches, a video of Glen Mairs wearing shock-blue face paint and smashing an electric guitar in front of a frenzied crowd is on endless repeat on the nightly news, dozens of viewers go online to hear whether a comma has been added to Clause 5 in Subsection B of Law 58375, and the government spends millions of Luminas every year prosecuting spammers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Timiskrane's national animal is the Polar Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Timiskrane is ranked 19,719th in the world and 1,134th in Osiris for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 3,380.46 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
