The Kingdom of Tshana is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by King Germain V with an iron fist, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, national health service, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 14.357 billion Tshanans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lumara. The average income tax rate is 98.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Tshanan economy, worth a remarkable 2,903 trillion Royals a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 202,235 Royals, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military officers are given medals for disobeying orders, the nationalised Arms Manufacturing Industry is not interested in making weapons, in a fit of passion King Germain V has shredded thirty years' worth of petitions, and military spending is on the increase. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tshana's national animal is the Elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tshana is ranked 237,272^nd in the world and 3,760^th in The East Pacific for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring -2.83 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
