The Republic of TomHollandstans is a small, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The quiet, industrious population of 32 million TomHollandstansians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Welfare, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 25.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The TomHollandstansian economy, worth 1.30 trillion dollars a year, is led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 40,561 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

The government is promoting multicultural values with the new 'Just Be Nice, OK?' initiative, pet loving officers arrest citizens who don't give their dogs enough biscuits, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, and organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. TomHollandstans's national animal is the parrot, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

TomHollandstans is ranked 231,885^th in the world and 5,074^th in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
