The District of Taranta is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by privy council chairman with an even hand, and renowned for its burgeoning quick pink fox population. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 22.602 billion Tarantans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District City. The average income tax rate is 43.2%.

The Tarantan economy, worth 658 trillion Juno aurums a year, is quite specialized and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 29,155 Juno aurums, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

The police force is on a recruitment drive, military spending is on the increase, Taranta has designated District City as its capital city, and Privy council chairman has just been declared ruler of Taranta in an international press conference. Crime is well under control, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Taranta's national animal is the quick pink fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Taranta is ranked 177,033^rd in the world and 3^rd in Ulaanbaatar for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 990.57 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
