The Commonwealth of Toala is a titanic, genial nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, hard-working population of 14.529 billion Toalans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hummingfield. The average income tax rate is 30.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Toalan economy, worth 884 trillion Bits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 60,896 Bits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Video game protagonists bear striking resemblances to major political figures, pawn shop reality shows dominate basic cable, the number of students attending university has reached a record high, and travel bureaus double as recruiting centers for national intelligence agencies. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Toala's national animal is the Clownfish, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

Toala is ranked 177,733^rd in the world and 2,469^th in The East Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 96.66 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
