The Federal Republic of Teccy is a huge, orderly nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, frequent executions, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 571 million Teccyians are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.9%.

The very strong Teccyian economy, worth 34.9 trillion Tas a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 61,154 Tas, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 387,427 per year while the poor average 4,016, a ratio of 96.5 to 1.

People often feel unbalanced by their daily commute, town welcome signs list corporate sponsors, foreign leaders are advising that Leader's letters must have gotten lost in the mail, and city rooftops are pockmarked with the shattered remains of high velocity delivery drones. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Teccy's national animal is the lizar, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Teccy is ranked 172,160th in the world and 28th in Carina for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring 1,313.07 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
