The State of Teligrad is a gargantuan, efficient nation, remarkable for its complete lack of public education and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 22.388 billion Teligradians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The minute, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.9%.

The thriving Teligradian economy, worth 859 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Gambling. Average income is 38,386 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 111,170 per year while the poor average 10,503, a ratio of 10.6 to 1.

Voting is voluntary. Crime is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Teligrad's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Teligrad is ranked 4,555th in the world and 1st in Americas for Most Stationary, with 3,396.6644928 days.
