The Penthouse Suite of Tango Hotel X-Ray is a colossal, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, smutty television, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cheerful population of 8.392 billion Tango Hotel X-Rayians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 93.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Tango Hotel X-Rayian economy, worth a remarkable 1,358 trillion Booyahs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 161,827 Booyahs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

THXR-SPAN viewership drops as MPs act their age, the new national campaign exhorts men to "Show Some Class - Don't Sit On Your Ass", anti-government web sites are springing up, and the police are destroying all photographic evidence of their own existence.

Tango Hotel X-Ray's national animal is the Tardigrade, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tango Hotel X-Ray is ranked 7,440^th in the world and 6^th in Schopenhauer for Lowest Crime Rates, with 107.14 law-abiding acts per hour.
