The Masses of Taikus is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Onodar Ausus with an even hand, and remarkable for its closed borders, absence of drug laws, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 5.062 billion Taikusis have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Keskorta. The average income tax rate is 69.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Taikusian economy, worth 366 trillion okroes a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 72,350 okroes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There is something rotten in the state of Taikus, visiting dignitaries make excuses to leave functions early and head to the nearest pub, politicians "baring all" for the camera isn't always a figure of speech, and at least 1% of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs budget goes to Onodar Ausus's wardrobe. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Taikus's national animal is the dog, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Taikus is ranked 6,022^nd in the world and 3^rd in Absurdistan for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 7,558.27 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
