The Federal Republic of Toumika is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Prime Minister Ishida Kyou with a fair hand, and renowned for its national health service, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 18.323 billion Toumikans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Industry, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Minamiyamashiro. The average income tax rate is 98.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Toumikan economy, worth a remarkable 4,510 trillion Erinns a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 246,162 Erinns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The running costs of homeless shelters are so high that it would be cheaper to buy houses for the homeless, arguments about toilet seats being left up or down get surprisingly heated, wilderness-dwelling hermits are surprised to find railway stations on their front doorsteps, and conductors wield diamond-encrusted batons to fit in with their freshly gilded surroundings. Crime is totally unknown. Toumika's national animal is the Toumikan Crested Ibis, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Shintō Jacuzziism.

Toumika is ranked 824^th in the world and 1^st in Calefacta Aquas Piscinae for Most Beautiful Environments, with 5,526.57 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
