The Oppressed Peoples of Titsu-daa is a very large, cultured nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 214 million Titsu-daans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, moralistic, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Administration, Welfare, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 80.0%.

The sizeable but inefficient Titsu-daan economy, worth 9.14 trillion Kevighas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, highly specialized black market in Trout Farming, Uranium Mining, Soda Sales, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 42,726 Kevighas, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 120,991 per year while the poor average 12,063, a ratio of 10.0 to 1.

Immigrant Maxtopians are routinely sold on popular internet auction sites, saying that someone looks a bit pale can be construed as hate speech, elections demand a proportionate response, and debates on whether toilet seats should be left up or down are increasingly commonplace. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Titsu-daa's national animal is the Racist, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Titsu-daa is ranked 49,504^th in the world and 440^th in the West Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,971.7 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
