The Republic of Taylor Swift Lands is a huge, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 318 million Swifties are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Taylor Swift City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.8%.

The all-consuming Swiftie economy, worth 28.5 trillion Eras a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 89,687 Eras, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 363,643 per year while the poor average 14,724, a ratio of 24.7 to 1.

Leader spends weekends doing the laundry of foreign leaders, more citizens have access to Maxtopian Grass than clean drinking water, Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Taylor Swift City to enjoy their national art, and it is illegal for a parent to tell a child to stop eating their boogers. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Taylor Swift Lands's national animal is the Cat, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Taylor Swift Lands is ranked 122,027^th in the world and 3,367^th in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 65 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
