The Republic of Greater Tiberia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Jonah Re with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, state-planned economy, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, cheerful population of 3.527 billion Tiberians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kallipolis. The average income tax rate is 94.4%.

The all-consuming Tiberian economy, worth 398 trillion Talons 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 mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 113,043 Talons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

White strait-jackets are the new orange jumpsuits, search-and-rescue organisations are the biggest employer in the country, parents seeking custody have to write a five-thousand word analysis of their child's imaginary friend, and the police go to great efforts to seize contraband favored by politicians on the police oversight committee. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Greater Tiberia's national animal is the Pug, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Greater Tiberia is ranked 292,743^rd in the world and 1,410^th in Europe for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -7.75 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
