The Pound of Tvania is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by An Aspin with an even hand, and notable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 8.935 billion Doggies enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Barking. The average income tax rate is 74.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient a Dog economy, worth a remarkable 1,630 trillion Treats a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 182,484 Treats, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Corporate lobbying has been outlawed, economic output is rising as the chronically depressed are persuaded not to burden society, an internet search for the word "bland" produces pictures of An Aspin, and mountain rescue missions can end with more people lost than found. Crime is totally unknown. Tvania's national animal is the Dog, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Dog Worship.

Tvania is ranked 8,493^rd in the world and 165^th in the South Pacific for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 6,316.62 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
