The Bees' Hive of Tuluni is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Awkiat with an even hand, and renowned for its pith helmet sales, smutty television, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, cheerful population of 4.079 billion Tulunians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hive City. The average income tax rate is 95.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Tulunian economy, worth 556 trillion honey coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 136,415 honey coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Droves of former desperados are applying to join the border police, autopsies often involve only cursory examination, programmes of questionable content are shown at peak-hours, and turning the other cheek is accompanied by a polite letter of complaint. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tuluni's national animal is the bee, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Tuluni is ranked 3,840^th in the world and 36^th in Refugia for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 3,103.99 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
