The Democratic Republic of ToMaroc is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Sidi Shukran Bourach with a fair hand, and notable for its punitive income tax rates and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.224 billion ToMarocians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Welfare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alba. The average income tax rate is 65.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped ToMarocian economy, worth 25.0 trillion Shanters a year, is highly specialized and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 20,393 Shanters, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The richest individuals apparently buy nothing but noodles and toilet paper, foreign leaders are advising that Sidi Shukran Bourach's letters must have gotten lost in the mail, dozens of additional foreign policy specialists have been sent to the country's WA Mission, and the police have been known to wiretap confessional boxes. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. ToMaroc's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

ToMaroc is ranked 297,564^th in the world and 4,804^th in The East Pacific for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 7,137.64 Standard Monetary Units.
