The Tomatoship of New Delfos is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by The Council of New Delfos with an even hand, and remarkable for its soft-spoken computers, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 37.361 billion Delfics enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The medium-sized, liberal government prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Environment, and Social Policy also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Delfingrad. The average income tax rate is 66.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient New Delfosian economy, worth a remarkable 6,103 trillion tomatoes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, highly specialized black market in Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 163,366 tomatoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Elections have become procedural nightmares due to voters persistently rejecting candidates, astronauts take one small step for New Delfos and one giant step backward from confrontation, government officials frequently cut taxes as a distraction from antics with their secretaries, and anti-government political posters adorn every building like wallpaper. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. New Delfos's national animal is the Big Red Tomato, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
New Delfos is ranked 26,962nd in the world and 5th in Taijitu for Largest Governments, scoring 27.95 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
