The Commonweal of Testa is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Caterina Nogson with an even hand, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, national health service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 27.171 billion Testans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The enormous, socially-minded government is primarily concerned with Education, with Healthcare, Environment, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Noghaven. The income tax rate is 100%.
The frighteningly efficient Testan economy, worth a remarkable 7,940 trillion Groats a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 292,235 Groats, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Testa's national animal is the Mongoose, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Atheist.
