The City of Taganrog is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 25.228 billion Taganrogers are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The medium-sized, moralistic, pro-business government prioritizes Spirituality, with Law & Order, Defense, and Industry also on the agenda. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 17.3%.

The very strong Taganrogian economy, worth a remarkable 1,372 trillion rubles a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. Average income is 54,397 rubles, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 166,172 per year while the poor average 13,802, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

The government is seen to favor Catholics and voting is voluntary. Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Taganrog's national animal is the whale.

Taganrog is ranked 219,422^nd in the world and 16^th in Cities for Largest Governments, scoring 10 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
