The Republican Prelature of Timmius is a huge, cultured nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, avowedly heterosexual populace, and anti-smoking policies. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 772 million Timmians 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 tiny government prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Healthcare, and Education are also considered important, while International Aid and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Timmius City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Timmian economy, worth 89.3 trillion timmuroes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 115,653 timmuroes, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 357,102 per year while the poor average 28,897, a ratio of 12.4 to 1.

Children are often punished for the sins of the fathers, any machine that shows any glimmer of intelligence is scrapped for parts, televangelists often claim they can cure your Lupus if you donate enough money, and terrorists are on a first name basis with the officials that stamp their passports. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Timmius's national animal is the Timmian otter, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Timmius is ranked 259,527^th in the world and 387^th in Astoria for Highest Food Quality, scoring 7.21 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
