The Republic of Tito Beltran is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Tito Beltran with an iron fist, and renowned for its teetotalling pirates, infamous sell-swords, and fear of technology. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 16.708 billion Tito Beltranians 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 enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stockholm. The average income tax rate is 90.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Tito Beltranian economy, worth a remarkable 3,711 trillion kronor 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. 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 amazing 222,143 kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Flowering peace lilies are the best defence against Tito Beltran's military, children are often punished for the sins of the fathers, immigrant herding has become a national pastime, and it's best not to ask what goes into Stockholm Crispy Fried Tofu's secret blend of herbs and spices. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tito Beltran's national animal is the moose, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Christianity.

Tito Beltran is ranked 56,033^rd in the world and 3^rd in Sweden for Lowest Crime Rates, with 72.7 law-abiding acts per hour.
