The Empire of TCE is a mammoth, pleasant nation, remarkable for its avant-garde cinema. The hard-working population of 6.214 billion TCEians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 19.0%.

The TCEian economy, worth 281 trillion rubles a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Furniture Restoration, and Trout Farming. Average income is 45,251 rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

A large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, hundreds of subterranean tunnels are being built as part of "Project Morlock", and TCE has designated TCE City as its capital city. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. TCE's national animal is the emu.

TCE is ranked 175,406^th in the world and 8^th in The Crimson Empire for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 32.07 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
