The Alexandrian Wartime Queendom of Tyra Melin is a huge, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its daily referendums, anti-smoking policies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 628 million Tyra Melinians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mindu. The average income tax rate is 78.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Tyra Melinian economy, worth 49.4 trillion Jajons a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Book Publishing, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 78,712 Jajons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Police conduct weekly raids looking for contraband cheeseburgers, 'The Anti-Government Hour' is a popular programme on many of Tyra Melin's radio stations, CEOs can't hear the term 'Fire Sale' without bursting into tears, and citizens try to pass off bottlecaps they found in their backyards as historical artifacts. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tyra Melin's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tyra Melin is ranked 203,510^th in the world and 175^th in Roses Without Thorns for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -3.61 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
