The Free Land of Timuslug is a titanic, efficient nation, renowned for its enslaved workforce, parental licensing program, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 10.217 billion Timuslugians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Timuslugian economy, worth a remarkable 1,228 trillion Mannas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 120,196 Mannas, with the richest citizens earning 8.8 times as much as the poorest.

Retiring citizens are dragged away in the middle of the night by mysterious men in black suits, children asking questions about science are referred to relevant sections in religious texts, the rich are once again pinching pennies, and the nation's youth would rather watch paint dry than the news. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Timuslug's national animal is the mouse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Timuslug is ranked 152,495th in the world and 87th in Conch Kingdom for Safest, scoring 61.03 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
