The Southern Empire of Taralania is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Adam I with an even hand, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, digital currency, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cheerful population of 15.366 billion Taralanians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tarania. The average income tax rate is 95.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Taralanian economy, worth a remarkable 3,327 trillion Taras a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 216,522 Taras, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Cheap goods stamped "Made In Dàguó" are increasingly rare, children often explain to their parents that the Mega Ultimate Sword Fist was worth the thousand-Tara charge on their phone bill, the media seems excessively interested in what Emperor Adam I is wearing this season, and visiting dignitaries often end up cuddling in the hot tub with Emperor Adam I. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Taralania's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Godsiniaism.

Taralania is ranked 11,176^th in the world and 29^th in Thaecia for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,702.43 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
