The Armed Republic of Tomasica is a huge, orderly nation, notable for its otherworldly petting zoo, compulsory military service, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 301 million Tomasicans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of T City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 42.6%.
The thriving Tomasican economy, worth 28.9 trillion guilders a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 95,931 guilders, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 308,547 per year while the poor average 22,590, a ratio of 13.7 to 1.
They say that Leader's personal computer is full of naked pictures of the Emperor of Maxtopia, things are looking up for patients accidentally prescribed erectile dysfunction medication, dubiously qualified Skandilundian barristers keep referring to laws as 'government guidelines', and homesickness is thought to be a waterborne illness. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tomasica's national animal is the bee, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Tomasica is ranked 281,347th in the world and 5,968th in The North Pacific for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -11.58 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
