The Republic of Tancy is a very large, socially progressive nation, notable for its daily referendums, sprawling nuclear power plants, and smutty television. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 454 million Tancyians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 30.6%.

The powerhouse Tancyian economy, worth 39.9 trillion Bombs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 87,844 Bombs, with the richest citizens earning 6.7 times as much as the poorest.

Constipated-looking politicians are uptight about potty mouths, the running costs of homeless shelters are so high that it would be cheaper to buy houses for the homeless, the nation locks people up and tells them they're mad for compassion's sake, and it is a common belief that a sport isn't sport if there are no decapitations. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Tancy's national animal is the Sharon The Slave x Owion The Onion 4ever, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Tancy is ranked 273,791^st in the world and 34^th in Antisipation Refounded for Largest Populations, with 454 million capita.
