The 2nd Jewellian Republic of Torkrius is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Gavison Tarma with a fair hand, and remarkable for its national health service, free-roaming dinosaurs, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.988 billion Torkans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jewella. The average income tax rate is 70.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Torkan economy, worth 498 trillion Bams 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 dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 124,842 Bams, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Dozens of additional foreign policy specialists have been sent to the country's WA Mission, any citizen who cries is immediately assigned a psychiatrist, families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain, and a faint smell of body odour can be detected at several miles' distance from the National Science Park. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Torkrius's national animal is the Kingfisher, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Torkrius is ranked 113,597th in the world and 429th in The Frontier Sea for Least Corrupt Governments, with 93.22 percentage of bribes refused.
