The Greater Commonwealth of United Tropics of Torchland is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Prime Minister Pierre Poilievre with a fair hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, complete lack of prisons, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 9.115 billion Torchlanders enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cape Torch and Salisbury. The average income tax rate is 96.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Torchlandic economy, worth a remarkable 2,933 trillion Torchlandic Pound and Condorian Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 321,786 Torchlandic Pound and Condorian Credits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Space research funding has hit a recent high while several military bases are being closed down, protesters are up in arms over new nuclear power stations, biotech companies are fined if their jumbled genetic sequences look too familiar, and drunk drivers are sent to rehabilitation paid for by the government. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. United Tropics of Torchland's national animal is the Springbok, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

United Tropics of Torchland is ranked 4,166th in the world and 4th in Avaldonia for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 96.44 Effective Tax Rate.
