The Royal Democracy of Tsokeiku is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Ota Nowumaga with a fair hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, free-roaming dinosaurs, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 11.403 billion Tsokeikans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dokodo. The average income tax rate is 36.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Tsokeikan economy, worth a remarkable 1,523 trillion Quasas 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 impressive 133,614 Quasas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

People think garlic bread counts as one of their "five a day", the people sing of those who will not be slaves again, small children are learning a lot of new words from a teacher with Tourette Syndrome, and surfing lessons include how to ward off sharks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Tsokeiku's national animal is the hedgehog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is the Way of Itsanfu.

Tsokeiku is ranked 186,608^th in the world and 257^th in Anteria for Greatest Rich-Poor Divides, with 1.67 Rich To Poor Income Ratio.
