The Blessed Serenity of Tyggar is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Tyggarian of the Day with a fair hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 6.042 billion Tyggarians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sunrise. The average income tax rate is 52.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Tyggarian economy, worth 284 trillion kettles a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 47,162 kettles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Military officers are given medals for disobeying orders, celebrity wrestlers thumb their nose at due process, nobody looks each other in the eye at neighborhood block parties any more, and mystics are claiming that a simultaneous rise in scepticism and education budgets is correlation rather than causation. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tyggar's national animal is the koi fish, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Tyggar is ranked 276,461^st in the world and 12^th in Redundant Realm of Redundancy for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -60.83 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
