“As the people speak, so they must be heard”

The Sacred Confederal Union of Toonela is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Sufet Carondawana with a fair hand, and notable for its daily referendums, vat-grown people, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 3.624 billion Toonelans 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, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Hall of Servitors. The average income tax rate is 96.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Toonelan economy, worth 457 trillion surpluses a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 126,362 surpluses, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Dog owners proudly declare that their pups can predict when the mailman will arrive, the nation's apology for those it has executed in the last year has come a little late for some, witnesses have to run a gauntlet of mob enforcers to testify at trials, and sexually-starved male dinosaurs terrorise tourists during weekly breakouts from Mesozoic Park. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Toonela's national animal is the nautilus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Onaronism.

Toonela is ranked 21,301^st in the world and 36^th in The Social Liberal Union for Most Income Equality, scoring 78.3 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
