The Republic of Testana is a very large, efficient nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 415 million Testanans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 34.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Testanan economy, worth 45.3 trillion Teses a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 109,219 Teses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Adults pretending to be teenage girls claim to have wholesome motives, human tissue is grown in vats as a delicacy as well as for transplants, weird kids who eat bugs are breaking the law, and the Treasury Minister takes anxiety medication every time kids lose their sports kits. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Testana's national animal is the Testmice, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Testana is ranked 59,871^st in the world and 511^th in the West Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 75.59 law-abiding acts per hour.
