The Democracy of Shanghai Tarany is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Xi Jinping with an even hand, and renowned for its public floggings, flagrant waste-dumping, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 1.58 billion Chinese Japanese Korean Kazakhs have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shanghai city. The average income tax rate is 66.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Shanghai Taranyian economy, worth 241 trillion Chinese yuan a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 152,974 Chinese yuan, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Builders across Shanghai Tarany are blocked up with orders for new public loos, older citizens lament over the loss of law and order, both diets and economic output are growing leaner with recent restrictions to free trade, and increasing inclusiveness is a sign of the times. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Shanghai Tarany's national animal is the panda, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Nothing.

Shanghai Tarany is ranked 101,452^nd in the world and 1^st in Empire of Galactoreus for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,242.73 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
