The Colony of Tandy 400 is a massive, pleasant nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, rampant corporate plagiarism, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working population of 1.75 billion Tandy 400ians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 13.2%.

The strong Tandy 400ian economy, worth 94.2 trillion rupees a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. Average income is 53,819 rupees, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 283,731 per year while the poor average 5,435, a ratio of 52.2 to 1.

A chain of pubs that cater solely to children has recently been unveiled, retirees make up the bulk of foreign students, NationStates is now a popular brand of laxatives despite Max Barry's protests, and the turtle has a hungry look. Crime, especially youth-related, is a problem. Tandy 400's national animal is the turtle, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

Tandy 400 is ranked 261,417^th in the world and 26^th in APA for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 13.25 Effective Tax Rate.
