The Democratic Republic of Tiovyak is a large, safe nation, renowned for its stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 50 million Tiovyakians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 22.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Tiovyakian economy, worth 1.24 trillion Naliches a year, is led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Furniture Restoration, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 24,798 Naliches, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are barcoded to keep track of their movements, gambling is outlawed, preschoolers practice disarming active shooters before naptime, and citizens select which government department gets their income tax Naliches each year. Crime is totally unknown. Tiovyak's national animal is the Jaguar, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tiovyak is ranked 67,914^th in the world and 2,044^th in The North Pacific for Safest, scoring 96.12 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
