The Abusive totalitarianism of Tonitchia is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, state-planned economy, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 656 million Tonitchians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 73.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Tonitchian economy, worth 3.68 trillion Tontis a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 5,609 Tontis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A government program is underway to revitalize Tonitchia's beaches, Leader's former secretary was last sighted on her new yacht, escargots have lost their charm ever since they started to be called 'cooked land snails', and research grant proposals read like political diatribes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tonitchia's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Tonitchia is ranked 215,971^st in the world and 6,377^th in Lazarus for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 153.98 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
