The Republic of Tanaska is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by President Elena Nagy with an even hand, and notable for its unlimited-speed roads, national health service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 8.106 billion Tanaskans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small government prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Defense, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid and Social Policy aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lewasing. The average income tax rate is 14.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Tanaskan economy, worth 759 trillion Tanaska Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 93,696 Tanaska Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Landfills fill the land, community-designed sword prostheses are becoming dangerously common, the official Tanaskan Phrase Book weighs as much as a small child, and many junior high school teachers minor in midwifery. Crime is almost non-existent. Tanaska's national animal is the Wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Tanaska is ranked 132,323^rd in the world and 7^th in Kingdom for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 550.28 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
