The Free Land of Taxworld is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 1.383 billion Taxworldians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tax Office. The average income tax rate is 74.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Taxworldian economy, worth 143 trillion Monies a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 103,808 Monies, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Escargots have lost their charm ever since they started to be called 'cooked land snails', undergrads find their professors' mushroom experiments less psychedelic than expected, a vast monorail network carries people all over the country, and self-sufficiency is built on seizing foreign assets. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Taxworld's national animal is the Tax man, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Taxworld is ranked 16,224^th in the world and 1^st in Sea for Safest, scoring 115.3 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
