The Republic of Tolfaer 5 is a massive, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working population of 2.891 billion Tolfaer 5ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 25.0%.

The Tolfaer 5ian economy, worth 129 trillion Airoes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Gambling, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 44,767 Airoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tolfaer 5's national animal is the salmon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Tolfaer 5 is ranked 251,110^th in the world and 4,007^th in Artificial Solar System for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -30 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
