The enormous, socially-minded government prioritizes Healthcare, with Education, Law & Order, and Environment also on the agenda, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of 🏙️Lyon. The average income tax rate is 68.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

State-owned companies are common. Average income is 41,421 💵tavals, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tavalenia's national animal is the 🐈cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is ⛪Christianity.

Tavalenia is ranked 11,124^th in the world and 24^th in The League for Safest, scoring 119.96 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
