The Republic of Tufi is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its ritual sacrifices, public floggings, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.061 billion Tufians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 72.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Tufian economy, worth 703 trillion rupees 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, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Furniture Restoration. 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 173,227 rupees, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The traditional Violetist dish of stuffed sheep's head is served with an intense look of shock upon its face, stranded mountaineers can watch livestreamed footage of their rescues, pulling weeds is seen as a threat to national security, and the wearing and manufacture of fur apparel is banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tufi's national animal is the horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tufi is ranked 30,535^th in the world and 63^rd in Gardenia Botanicum for Most Beautiful Environments, with 829.74 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
