The Kingdom and Union of Tumolia is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Her Majesty Queen Kathelion II of Cape with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, compulsory military service, and hatred of cheese. The democratic population of 8.678 billion Tumolians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it prioritizes Healthcare, with Defense, Education, and Environment also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kathelio. The average income tax rate is 81.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Tumolian economy, worth 344 trillion Tumots a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Pizza Delivery and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 39,661 Tumots, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Beating enemies to death with a baseball bat is legal if done within nine innings, wars of expansion are described as "peacekeeping operations", hordes of unemployed lumberjacks have resorted to cutting down utility poles to satisfy their cravings, and mothers are routinely abandoning their children in the name of women's rights. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tumolia's national animal is the Barn Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is The Tumolian Protestant Church.

Tumolia is ranked 276,005th in the world and 107th in Geopolity for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 7,258.13 Standard Monetary Units.
