The Republic of Tungusic Republic is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Tengin Chongyahun with an even hand, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, ubiquitous missile silos, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 13.341 billion Tungusopalmvanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mukden. The average income tax rate is 69.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Tungusopalmvanian economy, worth a remarkable 2,188 trillion Manchus a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Retail. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 164,044 Manchus, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Coastal cities are being moved a dozen miles inland to reduce flooding risk, in a fit of passion Tengin Chongyahun has shredded thirty years' worth of petitions, East Lebatuckese astronauts' favorite game during downtime on the Multinational Space Station is 'I Spy', and the endangered saltwater humpback Gyrfalcon is only seen in captivity programs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tungusic Republic's national animal is the Gyrfalcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Star Wars.

Tungusic Republic is ranked 27,355^th in the world and 1^st in Gru for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring 5,650.98 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
