The Allied States of Test Boat 7 is a gargantuan, orderly nation, remarkable for its state-planned economy and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 10.133 billion Test Boat 7ians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Fastaria. The average income tax rate is 38.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Test Boat 7ian economy, worth 91.5 trillion flags 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, quite specialized black market in Trout Farming and Information Technology. 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 9,034 flags, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Test Boat 7 has designated New Fastaria as its capital city. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Test Boat 7's national animal is the flag.

Test Boat 7 is ranked 221,383rd in the world and 224th in The Transitionists for Most Primitive, scoring -97.47 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
