The District of Tout Chaud is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Liard with an iron fist, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-working, cynical population of 30.481 billion Tout Chaudians enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.

The minute, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.9%.

The very strong Tout Chaudian economy, worth a remarkable 1,015 trillion aurums a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and dominated by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 33,300 aurums, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 114,246 per year while the poor average 7,123, a ratio of 16.0 to 1.

Tout Chaud's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, a dictator has seized power and outlawed elections, Tout Chaud has designated District City as its capital city, and Liard has just been declared ruler of Tout Chaud in an international press conference. Crime is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Tout Chaud's national animal is the bovina, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Tout Chaud is ranked 135,409^th in the world and 1^st in Tout Chaud for Nicest Citizens, with 12 average smiles per day.
