The Free Land of TorNaGul is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Luca Aeris with an iron fist, and renowned for its disturbing lack of elderly people, soft-spoken computers, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 27.268 billion TorNaGulians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Libria. The average income tax rate is 95.1%.

The frighteningly efficient TorNaGulian economy, worth a remarkable 5,706 trillion yeasts a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, extremely specialized black market in Information Technology and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 209,282 yeasts, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The temple hierarchy have found that endorsements are even more lucrative than indulgences, convicted crypto-miners are sent to the salt mines, parking lots are littered with coffee cups and doughnut crumbs, and even secular TorNaGulians are shouting "Blessed are the cheesemakers!". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. TorNaGul's national animal is the blub, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Church of the Void.

TorNaGul is ranked 305,692^nd in the world and 6,096^th in the Rejected Realms for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -9.17 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
