The Empire of Terruniam is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Cyrus I with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, devout population of 1.016 billion Terrunites are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hauptstadt. The average income tax rate is 66.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Terruniamian economy, worth 89.7 trillion Terrunian Notes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 88,323 Terrunian Notes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Posh restaurants scatter glass fragments on the dining room floor to keep out barefoot undesirables, nocturnal light pollution is mostly blue, farting etiquette is taught in schools, and Landorism has been named as Terruniam's national religion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Terruniam's national animal is the Bearded Vulture, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Landorism.

Terruniam is ranked 198,578^th in the world and 7,401^st in Osiris for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 29,765.13 Standard Monetary Units.
