The Holy Empire of Tigris Empire is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 428 million Tigarians 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Law & Order, with Defense, Education, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tigrisia. The average income tax rate is 41.9%.

The strong Tigarian economy, worth 23.3 trillion Teren Dollars a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 54,471 Teren Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Retirement apartments house giggling grannies who delightedly watch blank TVs all day long, plain-clothes police officers follow Dàguó tourists everywhere they go, citizens are forced to donate blood once every three months, and Tigris Empire has designated Tigrisia as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tigris Empire's national animal is the Tiger, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Tigris Empire is ranked 103,293^rd in the world and 215^th in Concord for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 1,327.74 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
