The Matriarchy of Tontaun is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Michaela Yeovis with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 5.675 billion Levellers 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 prioritizes Education, although Industry, Administration, and Welfare are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Midsomer. The average income tax rate is 14.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Levelling economy, worth 605 trillion Shards a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 106,712 Shards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

East Lebatuckese luxury goods are plundered by the working class of Tontaun, autocrats are persona non grata, every workday begins with group therapy, and the nation's industries are scrambling to switch to biodegradable plastics. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Tontaun's national animal is the Marsh Harrier, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Equanimity.

Tontaun is ranked 254,135^th in the world and 45^th in Texas for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 14.72 Effective Tax Rate.
