The Pound of Tvania is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by An Aspin with an even hand, and remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, smutty television, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 8.874 billion Doggies enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Barking. The average income tax rate is 73.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient a Dog economy, worth a remarkable 1,634 trillion Treats a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 184,217 Treats, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Corporate lobbying has been outlawed, economic output is rising as the chronically depressed are persuaded not to burden society, an internet search for the word "bland" produces pictures of An Aspin, and mountain rescue missions can end with more people lost than found. Crime is totally unknown. Tvania's national animal is the Dog, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Dog Worship.

Tvania is ranked 60,821^st in the world and 1,484^th in the South Pacific for Safest, scoring 99.03 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
