The Holy Green Wetlands of Tonsaeay is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Nek Kruu Chanthavy the Beautiful with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, ban on automobiles, and prohibition of alcohol. The compassionate, devout population of 17.774 billion Tonsaeayians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, socially-minded government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Neak Poan. The average income tax rate is 95.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Tonsaeayian economy, worth a remarkable 1,674 trillion Phleungs a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Pizza Delivery industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Cheese Exports, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is 94,184 Phleungs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Foreign leaders are advising that Nek Kruu Chanthavy the Beautiful's letters must have gotten lost in the mail, bowling teams spend more time looking at their phones than the pins, the government is seen to favor traditionalist religions, and glamping Tonsaeayians won't sleep in a tent that doesn't include a Jacuzzi. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tonsaeay's national animal is the Lucky Rabbit, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Prajnaparamita.

Tonsaeay is ranked 4,052^nd in the world and 3^rd in Japan for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 9,125.6 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
