The People's Republic of Terra Borderlands is a massive, socially progressive nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 2.251 billion Borderlanders enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sunrith District. The average income tax rate is 75.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Terra Borderlandian economy, worth 153 trillion laurels a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is 67,979 laurels, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Older citizens lament over the loss of law and order, explosive diarrhoea is not just a colorful phrase, military equipment stores have a tendency to go up in flames, and family isn't who you're born with but who you abandon in foreign countries. Crime is totally unknown. Terra Borderlands's national animal is the manticore, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Terra Borderlands is ranked 37,992^nd in the world and 12^th in Democratic Socialist Assembly for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 4,325.06 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
