The State of Twilliya is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Liard with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 32.424 billion Twilliyans enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The minute, liberal, pro-business government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.9%.

The thriving Twilliyan economy, worth a remarkable 1,477 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Basket Weaving, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 45,575 betales, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 266,054 per year while the poor average 3,673, a ratio of 72.4 to 1.

All tariffs have been abolished, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, Twilliya has designated District City as its capital city, and Liard has just been declared ruler of Twilliya in an international press conference. Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Twilliya's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Twilliya is ranked 250,726th in the world and 628th in Ancient Lands for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring -7.35 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
