The Duchy of Teviotdale is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Kyle Lauderdale with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 21.637 billion Teviotdalians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The large, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jedburgh. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 36.3%.

The very strong Teviotdalian economy, worth 763 trillion pounds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Retail. Average income is 35,268 pounds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 107,738 per year while the poor average 8,948, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

Teviotdale has designated Jedburgh as its capital city, Kyle Lauderdale has just been declared ruler of Teviotdale in an international press conference, and Christianity has been named as Teviotdale's national religion. Crime is a problem. Teviotdale's national animal is the lion and its national religion is Christianity.

Teviotdale is ranked 97,070th in the world and 29th in Terranova for Most Stationary, with 456.2103330252 days.
