The Federation of Tectovira is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Executive Committee with an even hand, and renowned for its public floggings, rampant corporate plagiarism, and exploding hoverboards. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 4.365 billion Tectovirans enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 14.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Tectoviran economy, worth a remarkable 1,125 trillion Gold bars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 257,819 Gold bars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Children must make a homemade spinach and ricotta rotolo by high school or be held back, East Lebatuckese astronauts' favorite game during downtime on the Multinational Space Station is 'I Spy', a suspicious number of male students have joined the Ladies' Wrestling League, and the ego of former emperors tend to match their stature. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Tectovira's national animal is the Human, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Cult of Man.

Tectovira is ranked 18,180^th in the world and 78^th in Europe for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 5,932.34 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
