The Empire of Tuytura is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, frequent executions, and compulsory military service. The devout population of 211 million Tuyturans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Spirituality, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 70.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Tuyturan economy, worth 8.51 trillion Yulinas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 40,346 Yulinas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Biological warfare is used to solve small disagreements, Maxtopians are both starving and giddy after the Tuyturan military unleashed its biological weapons, pausing for applause during a speech is seen as a form of censorship, and everybody's got wood thanks to Leader. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tuytura's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tuytura is ranked 44,082^nd in the world and 2,435^th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 73 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
