The United Socialist States of Tortlian is a huge, orderly nation, notable for its compulsory military service, free-roaming dinosaurs, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, cynical population of 367 million Tortles are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Turtovgrad. The average income tax rate is 54.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The strong Tortlian economy, worth 27.7 trillion Tortlian Krasronts a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Tourism, and Trout Farming. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 75,521 Tortlian Krasronts, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.
Builders across Tortlian are blocked up with orders for new public loos, Tortles are regularly fired for looking at MyFace during their lunch breaks, the government makes bereaved siblings into bereaved orphans, and it is now illegal for teens to view any sites except Club Kitten and My Little Donkey. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tortlian's national animal is the Great Turtle of the Misty Reef, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Tortlian is ranked 218,979th in the world and 23rd in The Raiders Commune for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring 157.75 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
