The Socialist Republic of Tuseth is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by General Secretary Iysa Bielle with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.402 billion Tusethians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Onapool. The average income tax rate is 85.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Tusethian economy, worth 615 trillion labour vouchers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 113,867 labour vouchers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The thrash metal version of the national anthem is topping charts, literature classes frequently go on field trips to rock concerts, soldiers find that home gadgets and power tools are more effective as improvised weapons than the guns they've been issued, and it's a long jump to get onto the housing ladder. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tuseth's national animal is the Tusethian sparrow, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Tuseth is ranked 96,082^nd in the world and 269^th in The Communist Bloc for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 2,710.71 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
