The Commonwealth of Tomboysalem is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, compulsory military service, and frequent executions. The compassionate population of 211 million Tomboys 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 Healthcare, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 20.3%.
The sizeable but inefficient Tomboysalemian economy, worth 11.2 trillion Tombuctús a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Retail, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 52,926 Tombuctús, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.
An increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents, buses are widely regarded as the safest way to travel, they say that Tomboys made a dessert and called it peace, and legal contracts aren't worth the paper they're written on. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tomboysalem's national animal is the Carpincho, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Tomboysalem is ranked 100,075th in the world and 2,665th in the Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 2,372.5 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
