The Republic of Tamarvand is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Grand Pooh-Bah Gilbert Sullivan with an even hand, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, frequent executions, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, devout population of 6.962 billion Tamaraneans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Demonsreach. The average income tax rate is 97.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Tamaran economy, worth a remarkable 1,253 trillion Liens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 180,118 Liens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, the government has enacted freedom of information, psychiatrists that date patients are congratulated on their romantic conquests, and flight attendants rip down curtains with revolutionary fervor. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tamarvand's national animal is the Bunny, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Foundationism.

Tamarvand is ranked 28,725^th in the world and 1,015^th in The North Pacific for Safest, scoring 109.77 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
