The Republic of Testana is a very large, cultured nation, renowned for its anti-smoking policies, smutty television, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 303 million Testanans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 33.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Testanan economy, worth 30.3 trillion Teses a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 99,853 Teses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The government airlifts sacrificial lambs, surrealist houses shaped like mushrooms and volcanoes dominate the wealthiest neighborhoods, the tenet of free speech is held dear, and heartfelt sentiments are mercilessly marketed by a million-Tes treacle machine. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Testana's national animal is the Testmice, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Testana is ranked 34,361st in the world and 380th in the West Pacific for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 5,404.94 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
