The Pacific Republic of Talitoa is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by Jarnet Billings with an even hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, free-roaming dinosaurs, and keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 19.924 billion Talitoans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Takkatok. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Talitoan economy, worth a remarkable 4,820 trillion Talios a year, is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 241,929 Talios, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Emergency responders spend more time in the air than giving air, fraternities are rejoicing at government-subsidized partying, entomologists flock to Takkatok for its remarkable gadfly population, and a certain animated paperclip is enjoying his sunset years at the government's expense. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Talitoa's national animal is the Oarfish, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Zelionism.

Talitoa is ranked 307,610^th in the world and 4,091^st in The East Pacific for Fattest Citizens, with 1.43 Obesity Rate.
