The Kingdom of Tiby is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Ostaf with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, public floggings, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 6.035 billion Tibyians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large government prioritizes Education, with Welfare, Administration, and Environment also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mialtor. The average income tax rate is 60.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Tibyian economy, worth 279 trillion Widgets a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Pizza Delivery, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 46,246 Widgets, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain, the Man in the Plastic Mask has been imprisoned in the Capital Penitentiary, there is something rotten in the state of Tiby, and woodland critters flock to the safety of unfamiliar humans wearing lab-coats. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tiby's national animal is the Bengal, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tiby is ranked 235,690^th in the world and 12,250^th in Lazarus for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring -7 on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
