The Sprawling Dominion of Tappee is a behemoth, efficient nation, ruled by Abigail York with an even hand, and renowned for its public floggings, compulsory military service, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 50.385 billion Tappeeans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defense, with Industry and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Environment and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grathmoras. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 50.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Tappeean economy, worth an astonishing 18,472 trillion electronic tappeens a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 366,619 electronic tappeens, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,946,572 per year while the poor average 36,479, a ratio of 53.4 to 1.

Streaming companies get dammed up whenever a powerful person throws a tantrum, the government guarantees that tourists will have the ultimate trip on their trips, escaped birthday balloons are torpedoed out of the sky, and the alien invasion siren sounds eerily like a UFO. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Tappee's national animal is the Trazyuk, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Manichaesim.

Tappee is ranked 2,806^th in the world and 130^th in Osiris for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 721 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
