The Republic of Targonn is a massive, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.856 billion Targonnians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 50.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Targonnian economy, worth 120 trillion Stars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 64,741 Stars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Third party candidates are now gaining some representation in Parliament, 90% of active duty TAF personnel have been laid off and replaced by robot kill-drones, a soldier's body is a temple, and there has been a series of riots between local cannibals and health food advocates. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Targonn's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Targonn is ranked 14,520^th in the world and 44^th in Concord for Safest, scoring 116.78 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
