The Kingdom of Teriol is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Rosaria Sorenson with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, public floggings, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 5.773 billion Teriolians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tyrane. The average income tax rate is 58.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Teriolian economy, worth 702 trillion lire a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 121,621 lire, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The police strictly enforce off-limit zones for tourists, elementary school students are required to master Bach's Chaconne in D before graduation, agriculture is heavily subsidized by the government, and country folk are sent to obligatory boarding schools to learn how to be civilized. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Teriol's national animal is the wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.
Teriol is ranked 39,706th in the world and 955th in The North Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 32.48 flags saluted per person per day.
