The Free Land of Tekumonia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by The Leader of Tekumonia with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 7.889 billion Tekumonians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Importantia. The average income tax rate is 20.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Tekumonian economy, worth a remarkable 1,874 trillion Talents a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 237,652 Talents, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Body doubles and armed bodyguards escort witnesses to and from courtrooms, shanty towns are forming in the suburbs of major cities, stern tutting by international commentators has persuaded Tekumonia to disarm, and defense lawyers suggestively note to juries how flagrantly happy victims were. Crime is totally unknown. Tekumonia's national animal is the Squirrel, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Pasta.

Tekumonia is ranked 19,539^th in the world and 918^th in Lazarus for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring 5,416.19 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
