The Imperial Free City of Tillania is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by the Lord Mayor with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 28.989 billion Tillanians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, socially-minded, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Education, with Environment and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Colonia. The average income tax rate is 85.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Tillanian economy, worth a remarkable 4,611 trillion Talers a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 159,070 Talers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Drills and shovels have been banned as the government cracks down on any means of fracking, would-be emigrants are told "abandon all hope all ye who would exit here", lobotomies haven't been the same after the practice was severed, and the drive to dismantle public transport has crashed and burned. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tillania's national animal is the Flönz, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tillania is ranked 7,883^rd in the world and 6^th in The Atheist Empire for Largest Populations, with 29.0 billion capita.
