The Kaiserreich of Tuirsland is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Kaiser Friedrich Wilhelm I with an even hand, and notable for its ban on automobiles, compulsory military service, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 12.471 billion Tuirslanders 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Karlsburg. The average income tax rate is 82.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Tuirslandian economy, worth a remarkable 3,933 trillion Reichsmarks a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 315,394 Reichsmarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens who plan overseas vacations are barred from running for political office, the nation's laws on image rights are amongst the strictest in the world, aggravated apostrophe abusers are admonished and assaulted, and graverobbers claim they're acting within the interest of 'scientific preservation'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tuirsland's national animal is the Bämburg Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tuirsland is ranked 2,503^rd in the world and 1^st in Palatine for Highest Average Incomes, with 315,394.04 Standard Monetary Units.
