The Most Serene Republic of Toons is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Dandy with a fair hand, and renowned for its ritual sacrifices, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 862 million Toons love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gardenview Center. The average income tax rate is 70.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Toon economy, worth 94.5 trillion Ichors a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Basket Weaving, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 109,602 Ichors, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Dàguó lanterns outnumber streetlights in major cities, children are raised bilingual from an early age, the Toon delegation to the World Assembly is having a hard time convincing people that international law will "pay for itself somehow...", and a small country is wondering where their capitol building's gold dome went. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Toons's national animal is the rock dog, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Toons is ranked 213,300^th in the world and 1,818^th in the Pacific for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 32,332.88 Standard Monetary Units.
