The Destructive Albatross of Taylor Allison Swift is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Empress Taylor Swift with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television, public floggings, and compulsory gun ownership. The compassionate population of 3.269 billion Tortured Poets have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Tortured Poets Department. The average income tax rate is 71.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Tortured economy, worth 692 trillion albums a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 211,712 albums, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

You can't put down the nation's attitude to pet health, children are raised bilingual from an early age, popular cartoon characters frequently appear in government-sponsored PSAs reminding students to say no to drugs, and coffee-addicted citizens look forward to baristas getting their name wrong at local coffee shops. Crime is totally unknown. Taylor Allison Swift's national animal is the cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Anthology.

Taylor Allison Swift is ranked 103,177^th in the world and 1,263^rd in the West Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,686.84 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
