The Confederacy of New Tarsonis is a mid-sized, pleasant nation, notable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working population of 62 million New Tarsonisians 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 minute government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.6%.

The strong New Tarsonisian economy, worth 4.24 trillion dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Arms Manufacturing, and Trout Farming. Average income is 68,335 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 6.2 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. New Tarsonis's national animal is the eagle.

New Tarsonis is ranked 310,404^th in the world and 8^th in The Koprulu Sector for Largest Populations, with 62.0 million capita.
