The Empire of Toninho is a very large, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 190 million Toninhoans are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 27.4%.

The thriving Toninhoan economy, worth 11.9 trillion Stoks a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 62,675 Stoks, with the richest citizens earning 8.2 times as much as the poorest.

It can be a real jungle in a modern courtroom, invasive drug testing is now performed at elementary school sports days, scientists earn more grant money for reproducing old experiments than trying anything new, and mathematicians are hated by children across the country. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Toninho's national animal is the black wolf with red eyes.

Toninho is ranked 100,077^th in the world and 93^rd in Lands End for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 1,421.29 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
