The Woodhouse Sanctum of TIGC is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its infamous sell-swords, keen interest in outer space, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 23.043 billion TIGCians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The medium-sized, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 27.2%.
The frighteningly efficient TIGCian economy, worth a remarkable 1,840 trillion $$s a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 79,861 $$s, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 260,622 per year while the poor average 18,409, a ratio of 14.2 to 1.
Lobbyists are trying to convince government to recategorize most natural disasters as "non-critical naturogenic inconveniences", looting and pillaging are now considered vital intelligence-gathering activities, teachers prefer to give 'Maybe, Maybe Not' tests when dealing with sensitive subjects, and TIGCian police have to pay out of their own pockets for bulletproof vests. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. TIGC's national animal is the Dolly Varden, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
TIGC is ranked 2,672nd in the world and 1st in The Imperial German Confederation for Most Stationary, with 3,869.70585672 days.
