The Empire of Tenochtitlan is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Quetzalcoatl with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 31.311 billion Tenochtitlanians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tenochtitlan. The average income tax rate is 91.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Tenochtitlanian economy, worth a remarkable 4,973 trillion Jades a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Tourism. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 158,852 Jades, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

The best way to get the government to U-turn is to squick out Quetzalcoatl, all facts are created equal, major cities run on potato batteries, and police detectives carry phrenology calipers as part of their standard kit. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tenochtitlan's national animal is the Jaguar, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tenochtitlan is ranked 27,387^th in the world and 4^th in The Misty Regiment for Highest Poor Incomes, with 79,558.07 Standard Monetary Units.
