The People's Republic of Terra Borderlands is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its rum-swilling pirates, ban on automobiles, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 2.203 billion Borderlanders enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sunrith District. The average income tax rate is 76.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Terra Borderlandian economy, worth 139 trillion laurels a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Retail, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 63,542 laurels, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Official government guidance encourages binge behaviors, the nation's politicians are known more for the internet memes they spawn than any of their accomplishments, extreme political groups are outlawed, and hundreds of subterranean tunnels are being built as part of "Project Morlock". Crime is totally unknown. Terra Borderlands's national animal is the manticore, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Terra Borderlands is ranked 9,195^th in the world and 51^st in Democratic Socialist Assembly for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 5,871.55 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
