The Enlightened Empire of Tarsas is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Emperor Romulus X with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, unlimited-speed roads, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 28.993 billion Tarsans 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 enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Civitas Tarsae. The average income tax rate is 78.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Tarsan economy, worth a remarkable 2,710 trillion harkans a year, is highly specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 93,493 harkans, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Fewer people are bathing as citizens must show ration stamps before they can turn on their faucets, marketing departments of corporate giants compete to sponsor little league teams, conscientious objectors are hanged as traitors, and replacement organs are grown in vats. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tarsas's national animal is the Blue Eared Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Tarsan Paganism.

Tarsas is ranked 52,410th in the world and 9th in Ajax for Most Stationary, with 847.2810202398 days.
