The Protectorate of TSP Transition Team is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its remarkably easy parental licensing program, rampant corporate plagiarism, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 15.236 billion TSP Transition Teamians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 96.8%.

The frighteningly efficient TSP Transition Teamian economy, worth a remarkable 3,640 trillion Denarii a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Retail, Tourism, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an amazing 238,966 Denarii, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The government tries not to listen to the people unless it absolutely has to, most governmental positions are filled by zealous nationalists, camera crews have accompanied conscripted dancers to film 'Marching On Ice', and Leader's support among single young men has drooped slightly. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. TSP Transition Team's national animal is the dolphin, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

TSP Transition Team is ranked 343,105th in the world and 5,379th in the South Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -11.87 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
