The Dominion of Tornville is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its disturbing lack of elderly people, compulsory gun ownership, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, devout population of 10.659 billion Tornvilleans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 57.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Tornvillean economy, worth a remarkable 1,494 trillion rupees a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Tourism. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 140,245 rupees, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.5 times as much as the poorest.

Major corporations receive tax breaks for no apparent reason, increasing numbers of children in Tornville have different eye and hair color to their supposed fathers, Leader's former secretary was last sighted on her new yacht, and financial investors are noting a boom in artillery. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tornville's national animal is the sheep, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tornville is ranked 22,807th in the world and 1,637th in Lazarus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 87.52 law-abiding acts per hour.
