The Federation of Tokordina is a huge, socially progressive nation, notable for its ban on automobiles, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 524 million Tokordinans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 44.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Tokordinan economy, worth 25.5 trillion Tensens a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Basket Weaving, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 48,600 Tensens, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has adopted a "Lightning Never Strikes Twice" approach to dealing with natural disasters, most believe it doesn't hurt to embrace free trade, billions of Tensens are being poured into a space program, and straitjackets are a common religious garb. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tokordina's national animal is the Swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tokordina is ranked 174,207^th in the world and 10^th in The Arctic for Largest Retail Industry, scoring -4.27 on the Shrinkwrap Consignment Productivity Index.
