The Armed Republic of TOALSORA is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Maximus Honorius with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, ubiquitous missile silos, and national health service. The compassionate population of 6.029 billion TOALSORAians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Toalsora City. The average income tax rate is 81.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient TOALSORAian economy, worth 616 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 102,329 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, child shoplifters spend half their youth behind bars, noises louder than a whisper have been prohibited by law, and the voyages of obsolete star-trekking satellites on deliberate escape orbits are only just beginning. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. TOALSORA's national animal is the cobra, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Catholicism.

TOALSORA is ranked 212,881^st in the world and 3,820^th in The North Pacific for Nudest, with 102.75 cheeks per square mile.
