The United Socialist States of Transvaall is a massive, genial nation, ruled by President Johhanes Louie Bennedict with an even hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 3.505 billion Transvaallis are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Pretoria. The average income tax rate is 75.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Transvaallian economy, worth 323 trillion Rand a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Information Technology. Average income is 92,274 Rand, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Large sections of Transvaall have been named national reserves to protect the native tribes living there, troops are either deafened by gunfire or a hysterical voice screaming the Party manifesto, aides are afraid to ask if President Johhanes Louie Bennedict wants a cup of tea or coffee, and a video of President Johhanes Louie Bennedict wearing shock-blue face paint and smashing an electric guitar in front of a frenzied crowd is on endless repeat on the nightly news. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Transvaall's national animal is the White lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Transvaall is ranked 141,125th in the world and 85th in Africa for Most Corrupt Governments, with 4.21 kickbacks per hour.
