The Holy Incorruptible Tsardom of TURTLESHROOM II is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Tsars Outtacountry and Vacant and Wip with an even hand, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, prohibition of alcohol, and rampant corporate plagiarism. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 21.653 billion TurtleShroomers are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The tiny, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jonesboro. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient TurtleShroomian economy, worth a remarkable 9,662 trillion Scrips a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an amazing 446,224 Scrips, with the richest citizens earning 8.1 times as much as the poorest.

School uniforms are compulsory, gossip magazines are more interested in astrological stars than celebrity ones, chess defeat has made Tsars Outtacountry and Vacant and Wip the laughingstock of dictators and grandmasters alike, and city budgets are spent entirely on supporting the town royalty. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. TURTLESHROOM II's national animal is the Nangnang, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

TURTLESHROOM II is ranked 27,591st in the world and 4th in Valkia for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 7,279.09 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
