The Arling of Tyrsinia is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by Arl Galdus vos Harona with an even hand, and renowned for its compulsory military service and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, devout population of 11.811 billion Tyrsinians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Spirituality, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tyrsis. The average income tax rate is 9.9%.

The strong Tyrsinian economy, worth 947 trillion kamas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Information Technology. Average income is 80,236 kamas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Nobody knows why the caged snail sings, political speeches always take place at sunset to a background of patriotic power ballads, statue-sitting has replaced the stake-out as the dullest form of police duty, and museums have more touchscreens on display than artifacts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Tyrsinia's national animal is the snail and its national religion is Maumiqism.

Tyrsinia is ranked 74,467^th in the world and 6^th in Eastern Roman Empire for Highest Poor Incomes, with 40,467.68 Standard Monetary Units.
