The Armed Republic of Tcfsr is a huge, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, keen interest in outer space, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 649 million Killjoys enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, corrupt government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Environment, Industry, and Public Transport also on the agenda, while International Aid and Law & Order are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Helena. The average income tax rate is 23.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Tcfsrian economy, worth 56.1 trillion rupees 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 black market in Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, Retail, and Soda Sales. 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 86,465 rupees, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The best defense is a good fence, astronomers are flocking to Tcfsr to take advantage of its clear night skies, hit and run driving is no longer a crime - it's the national sport, and shelters struggle to keep up with the endless intake of stray animals. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Tcfsr's national animal is the Gerard Way, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tcfsr is ranked 57,605^th in the world and 975^th in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Transport, scoring 1,340.4 on the Societal Mobility Rating.
