The Kingdom of Tysons is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Matthew Bennett with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, complete lack of prisons, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 18.247 billion Tysonians 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 relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tysons Corner. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 26.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Tysonian economy, worth a remarkable 2,535 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 138,933 Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 6.3 times as much as the poorest.

Politicians always seem to take two steps forward then three steps back, just as students finish their homework it's time for school, young people pass around flash drives filled with illegal music, and artists count down the years until Matthew Bennett is allowed to listen to their music. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tysons's national animal is the Dog, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Secularism.

Tysons is ranked 31,296^th in the world and 9^th in North America for Highest Average Incomes, with 138,933.44 Standard Monetary Units.
