The Funhouse of Terror of Tomie is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Tomie Kawakami with an iron fist, and notable for its ban on automobiles, disturbing lack of elderly people, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 23.775 billion serfs are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The tiny, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kyōtomie. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient servile economy, worth an astonishing 10,866 trillion neo yen a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Retail. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an amazing 457,050 neo yen, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,299,292 per year while the poor average 128,348, a ratio of 10.1 to 1.

Jennifer Government is banned, repurposed warships fire swag at company promotional events, a rebrand a day keeps the debt collectors away, and biotech companies are fined if their jumbled genetic sequences look too familiar. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Tomie's national animal is the fushichō, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is servility.

Tomie is ranked 290,584^th in the world and 32^nd in The Alliance of Dictators for Most Extensive Civil Rights, with 18.67 Martin Luther King, Jr. Units.
