The County of Tishomingo is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory military service, restrictive gun laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 13.281 billion Tishomingoans are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Iuka. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.9%.

The very strong Tishomingoan economy, worth 908 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Cheese Exports, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 68,435 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 219,057 per year while the poor average 16,229, a ratio of 13.5 to 1.

Seasonal hay-fever sufferers are attending government drug counselling sessions to get free doughnuts, a ban on unsolicited cold calling in all forms is in effect, Leader has just been declared ruler of Tishomingo in an international press conference, and a major religion has been named as Tishomingo's national religion. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force. Tishomingo's national animal is the eagle, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Tishomingo is ranked 96,504^th in the world and 2^nd in County for Most Patriotic, with 16.92 flags saluted per person per day.
