The Capitalist Police State of Timsvill is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Greg Daniels with an iron fist, and notable for its anti-smoking policies, triple-decker prams, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 17.818 billion Tims are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tim's city. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.8%.

The frighteningly efficient tim economy, worth a remarkable 2,661 trillion Coins a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Cheese Exports, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 149,360 Coins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 448,750 per year while the poor average 38,805, a ratio of 11.6 to 1.

The backs of 'No Trespassing' signs were made for you and me, mountain rescuers refer to their new gear as the 'watchamacallits' and 'thingymabobs', the mob and the police have recently had numerous clashes in the back alleys of Timsvill's cities due to the government's steadfast anti-casino stance, and you can say what you like about the genocidal murderers that rule Timsvill but at least the trains run on time. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Timsvill's national animal is the dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Holy Church of Timsvill.

Timsvill is ranked 159,806th in the world and 3rd in The League of United Countries for Most Stationary, with 127.06980061972 days.
