The Kingdom of Tiby is a huge, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, devout population of 732 million Tibyans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Slatamous. The average income tax rate is 51.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Tibyian economy, worth 26.9 trillion Widgets a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 36,751 Widgets, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Biotech companies are fined if their jumbled genetic sequences look too familiar, many parents are becoming frustrated with their children's choices in spouses, Tiby has designated Slatamous as its capital city, and foreign policy is to avoid standing up to bullies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tiby's national animal is the Bengal, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tiby is ranked 41,590^th in the world and 891^st in The East Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 734.72 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
