The Autocractic Lordship of Talilon is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by President Charles Hectorford with an iron fist, and renowned for its triple-decker prams, otherworldly petting zoo, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 8.097 billion Talilonians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Marconote. The average income tax rate is 85.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Talilonian economy, worth a remarkable 1,904 trillion Talarians a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Uranium Mining, Retail, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 235,209 Talarians, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

The thin blue line is composed of picketing police officers demanding better pensions, when you fly on Air Talilon you win a seat or you die, female smokers cut their hair and don suits to get into male-only clubs, and drowning sailors are hung out to dry. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Talilon's national animal is the Lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Church of the Great Sun Lion.

Talilon is ranked 2,670^th in the world and 8^th in Commonwealth of Sovereign States for Fattest Citizens, with 39.83 Obesity Rate.
