The Incorporated States of TSB is a colossal, genial nation, notable for its public floggings and irreverence towards religion. The quiet, industrious population of 4.353 billion TSBians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 22.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient TSBian economy, worth 188 trillion Delta Eagles a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 43,207 Delta Eagles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens need to demonstrate a complete set of dental records to throw five bucks in a hobo's hat, all telephone traffic is monitored for 'national security reasons', the nation threatens sanctions on islands only visible at low tide, and power stations shutting down at night has made bedtime reading tricky. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. TSB's national animal is the Kitsune.

TSB is ranked 231,407^th in the world and 3^rd in EPSA for Greatest Rich-Poor Divides, with 2.26 Rich To Poor Income Ratio.
