The Commonwealth of Timlandia2 is a large, orderly nation, notable for its compulsory military service and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 115 million Timlandians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 62.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Timlandia2ian economy, worth 3.24 trillion Timlandian Dollars a year, is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Retail, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 28,216 Timlandian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens select which government department gets their income tax Timlandian Dollars each year, organ donation is compulsory, astronomers are flocking to Timlandia2 to take advantage of its clear night skies, and men who wear pink are seen as dangerously unmanly. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Timlandia2's national animal is the Peregrine Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Timlandia2 is ranked 305,210th in the world and 3rd in Neuva Erva for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -13.57 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
