The Commonwealth of Tyranitopah is a very large, cultured nation, notable for its national health service, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 364 million Tyranitopahians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 64.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Tyranitopahian economy, worth 22.1 trillion Muns a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Basket Weaving, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 60,646 Muns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Leader's told that love often manifests itself through homicidal four-lettered litanies, politicians are often found scavenging bins at night to supplement their income, people who do not complete their community service are sentenced to more community service, and ice-filled coffins are ominously positioned in the corner of every hospital ward. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tyranitopah's national animal is the Dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Tyranitopah is ranked 25,971^st in the world and 1^st in Verdania for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 2,899.97 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
