The Totalitarian Theocracy of Tilminese Federation is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by The Overseer Council with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, enslaved workforce, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.58 billion Serfs are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Ultimatum. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 63.8%.

The very strong Tilminese economy, worth 930 trillion Tilminese Notes a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, Uranium Mining, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 87,945 Tilminese Notes, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 464,001 per year while the poor average 8,867, a ratio of 52.3 to 1.

Metal detectors have been banned after a bottle cap caused a riot at the beach, the military patrols the streets in search of possible secessionists, diplomatic cables about The Overseer Council have suddenly been very flattering, and children who believe in the tooth fairy are frequently shipped off to Bigtopia. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Tilminese Federation's national animal is the wingless flying hippo, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Tilminese Purified Church.

Tilminese Federation is ranked 181,350th in the world and 168th in Commonwealth of Sovereign States for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 803.48 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
