“Proudly Urban, Unashamedly Rural”

The Self-Administrative City of Tinhampton is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Mayor Saffron Howard AM with a fair hand, and renowned for its ritual sacrifices, free-roaming dinosaurs, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 9.828 billion Tinhamptonians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, corrupt, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Industry, although Education and Defense are also considered important, while Environment and Law & Order receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tinhampton. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Tinhamptonian economy, worth a remarkable 2,866 trillion dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. Average income is an amazing 291,626 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

A PhD just ain't what it used to be, citizens sell their moldy bread as homemade penicillin, fixing attendance at women's matches is a matter of "when they go low, we go high... funding", and the single fish caught by Tinhamptonian fishers last year is cited as evidence of Tinhampton's thriving fisheries. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Tinhampton's national animal is the cow, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Tinhampton is ranked 4,880^th in the world and 2^nd in Sophia for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 17,112.6 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
