The Union of Tinis is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by First Speaker Waldo with a fair hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, sprawling nuclear power plants, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, humorless, devout population of 43.469 billion Tinisians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded, outspoken government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arx. The income tax rate is 100%.

The large but stagnant Tinisian economy, worth 642 trillion Gerbiles a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is solely comprised of the Book Publishing industry. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is 14,771 Gerbiles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Poaching has been on the rise after animals from the nation's zoos were released into the wild, courtrooms can be a little sketchy, interest in globalism never flags, and posters on 'Tinisian Values' advise against being proud of Tinis. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tinis's national animal is the dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Glorvanism.

Tinis is ranked 2,147^th in the world and 2^nd in The Furry Federation for Lowest Crime Rates, with 142.08 law-abiding acts per hour.
