The Many Nomads of Taloren is a titanic, orderly nation, notable for its teetotalling pirates, avowedly heterosexual populace, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 16.958 billion Talorenians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Administration, although Industry and Healthcare are also considered important, while Welfare and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sülüzer. The average income tax rate is 95.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Talorenian economy, worth a remarkable 3,741 trillion Kuruşs a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Retail, Uranium Mining, Furniture Restoration, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an amazing 220,630 Kuruşs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 681,239 per year while the poor average 55,127, a ratio of 12.4 to 1.

Employers may fire workers without giving any reason, compassion shrinks as tax rebates grow, science labs across the country languish in cobwebs as the government turns its attentions to spiritual matters, and grinning punters say that casino roulette is the greatest high that life has to offer. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Taloren's national animal is the Wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Taloren is ranked 1,701^st in the world and 1^st in Rushmore for Largest Black Market, with 5,548 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
