The Republic of Tavalia is a massive, genial nation, ruled by President Silvestro Fontana with a fair hand, and renowned for its smutty television, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 2.397 billion Tavalians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Solitudia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 34.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Tavalian economy, worth 476 trillion Tavalian Sols a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 198,853 Tavalian Sols, with the richest citizens earning 7.7 times as much as the poorest.

Visitors often wonder about the new red dartboard in President Silvestro Fontana's office, funerals are often rudely interrupted by juggling clowns shouting for volunteers from the audience, trolls insist that strings of racial slurs mean "good morning" in obscure languages, and there's more vermin than ever on the metro. Crime is totally unknown. Tavalia's national animal is the Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tavalia is ranked 11,296^th in the world and 8^th in Communitas for Highest Average Incomes, with 198,853.78 Standard Monetary Units.
