The Colony of Tea Jol is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by DJ Moyer with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, unlimited-speed roads, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed population of 5.897 billion Tea Jolians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Galapagos. The average income tax rate is 83.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Tea Jolian economy, worth a remarkable 1,076 trillion kronor a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 182,493 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The right school tie opens more doors than the right qualification, repurposed warships fire swag at company promotional events, formerly fertile fields are being leached dry of nutrients by intensive farming, and the government considers it a sacred duty to video bikini-clad beach swimmers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tea Jol's national animal is the Boa constrictor, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tea Jol is ranked 45,393^rd in the world and 667^th in The East Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 4,812.04 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
