The Interstellar Commonwealth of Toerana is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by BowShot118 Kyosson with a fair hand, and renowned for its smutty television, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 5.11 billion Toeranans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, liberal morass — juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Welfare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Luna. The average income tax rate is 92.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Toeranan economy, worth 432 trillion Toeranan Pounds a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 84,605 Toeranan Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Murderers frequently escape punishment by claiming they were protecting their honour, suit-clad businessmen have been taking advantage of the relaxed welfare qualifications by shopping with food stamps, peace talks occasionally rack up a higher body count than the wars they seek to stop, and glamping Toeranans won't sleep in a tent that doesn't include a Jacuzzi. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Toerana's national animal is the Llama, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is UniWardrobeism.

Toerana is ranked 239,000^th in the world and 7,172^nd in the Rejected Realms for Largest Mining Sector, scoring -17.2 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
