The Principality of Tapion is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Rivaldi Milosha with a fair hand, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 1.3 billion Tapiocas enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pearl Milk Ikspiari. The average income tax rate is 8.8%.

The strong Tapionan economy, worth 96.4 trillion leipas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Automobile Manufacturing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 74,157 leipas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.

Interest rates mysteriously drop whenever the CBT Governor goes house hunting, clergy who start talking about politics are forced to take a holy vow of silence, it's believed that women's brains will overheat if they think for themselves, and the media have begun calling the government treasury "Rivaldi Milosha's stash". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Tapion's national animal is the horse and its national religion is Optimistic Resilience.

Tapion is ranked 166,541^st in the world and 17^th in Ukraine for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring 283.66 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
