The Funhouse of Terror of Tomie is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Tomie Kawakami with an iron fist, and notable for its ban on automobiles, frequent executions, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 23.54 billion serfs are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The tiny, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kyōtomie. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient servile economy, worth an astonishing 10,716 trillion neo yen a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Retail. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an amazing 455,253 neo yen, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,363,721 per year while the poor average 118,783, a ratio of 11.5 to 1.

It's a jungle out there, clumsy self-injury is a viable claim in modern compensation culture, genetic research is facing major headwinds, and the new foreign policy is "why bother invading neighbours when they can be bought wholesale?". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Tomie's national animal is the fushichō, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is servility.

Tomie is ranked 490^th in the world and 6^th in The Alliance of Dictators for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 13,460.86 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
