The Country of Tefranland is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Nolan Teysseyre with a fair hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, daily referendums, and public floggings. The hard-working, democratic population of 1.996 billion Tefranlandians are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tefif. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.4%.

The strong Tefranlandian economy, worth 135 trillion Tefrals a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 67,654 Tefrals, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 210,270 per year while the poor average 16,745, a ratio of 12.6 to 1.

Members of ethnic minorities are more often called "boy" or "girl" than by their actual names, teachers prefer to give 'Maybe, Maybe Not' tests when dealing with sensitive subjects, organ donation is compulsory, and mathematicians are gathering an infinite number of Mole Rats and typewriters to see if they can recreate the works of Max Barry. Crime is well under control. Tefranland's national animal is the Mole Rat, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Shimmy Shimmy Shimmy Ya.

Tefranland is ranked 108,706th in the world and 4th in Antraland for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,039.5 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
