The Archetype State of Ticheotis is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, sprawling nuclear power plants, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 13.842 billion Surrealists 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Entropea. The average income tax rate is 63.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Ticheotisian economy, worth a remarkable 1,700 trillion euros 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Soda Sales, Retail, Gambling, and Pizza Delivery. 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 122,846 euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.
Immigrants who don't like the taste of Ticheotisian Turnip Chips are immediately deported, captains must wait until all rats are safe before jumping ship, small children are frequently chased by rehabilitated pitbulls, and the government invades its allies more than its enemies. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Ticheotis's national animal is the monkey, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Ticheotis is ranked 17,972nd in the world and 9th in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Most Corrupt Governments, with 108.4 kickbacks per hour.
