The Resplendent Technocracy of Red Talons is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Luminary with an iron fist, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, infamous sell-swords, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 28.794 billion Technocrats are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Education, with Defense, Environment, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Welfare and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lys. The average income tax rate is 76.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Technocrat economy, worth a remarkable 9,761 trillion Prestige Crystals a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 339,018 Prestige Crystals, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.8 times as much as the poorest.

Tourists call Technocrat beach towns "the fine coastline", everybody's got wood thanks to Luminary, vital intelligence-gathering activities are often put on hold for Call of Honor tournaments, and unprotected royals have replaced their corgis with rottweilers. Crime is totally unknown. Red Talons's national animal is the Nox'Venor, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Lightbearing Void.

Red Talons is ranked 213,965th in the world and 9th in Limitless Universe for Most Stationary, with 33.79179781768 days.
