The Violetist of Taduwe II is a colossal, safe nation, remarkable for its public floggings, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The quiet, industrious population of 8.556 billion Taduwe IIians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Violetgrad. The average income tax rate is 28.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The strong Taduwe IIian economy, worth 454 trillion violetist dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Cheese Exports, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 53,144 violetist dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.
New safety regulations require all cars manufactured in Taduwe II to be bombproof, every politician claims to be at least 1% Native Taduwe IIian, atheists refusing to attend church are heavily fined by the government, and seven-year-olds debate for weeks on the merits of the Oxford comma. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Taduwe II's national animal is the wolf.
Taduwe II is ranked 21,629th in the world and 162nd in Hispano Germanic Alliance for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 5,575.59 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
