The Chilly and Devout State of Tsarevich is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by King Ivan Ivanovich with an iron fist, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, complete lack of prisons, and national health service. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 4.684 billion Tsarevichians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Feydor City. The average income tax rate is 50.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Tsarevichian economy, worth 485 trillion Balkans a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 103,561 Balkans, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Any secret that gets off someone's chest is promptly replaced, domestic fishermen fly the Tsarevichian flag out of fear of being blown up, defense lawyers often argue there's no proof murder victims weren't vampires, and diplomats agree to the terms and conditions of peace treaties without reading them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tsarevich's national animal is the Feydor Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Christopheranity.

Tsarevich is ranked 70,347^th in the world and 122^nd in 10000 Islands for Most Corrupt Governments, with 29.42 kickbacks per hour.
