The Republic of Tomodachi is a tiny, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service. The hard-working, democratic population of 12 million Tomodachians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.2%.

The strong Tomodachian economy, worth 678 billion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 56,538 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 5.6 times as much as the poorest.

Military spending recently hit a new high and artists count down the years until Leader is allowed to listen to their music. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tomodachi's national animal is the swan, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Tomodachi is ranked 74,916^th in the world and 7^th in The Colonies of Latin America for Fattest Citizens, with 12.25 Obesity Rate.
