The State of Tuvaru is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by the Governor with an iron fist, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 26.529 billion Tuvaruans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Public Transport, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 72.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Tuvaruan economy, worth 995 trillion betales a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is dominated by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 37,516 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Libraries are replacing history books and classic novels with technical manuals and trades directories to match the nation's changing demands, immigrants are required to salute the flag five times a day, graffiti artists spend lengthy periods of time in jail, and the weather report is the prisoners' favourite programme. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tuvaru's national animal is the deer, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Tuvaru is ranked 192,966th in the world and 4th in Baku for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 234.5 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
