The Piedmontese Refoundation of Turinese Empire is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Rex Luca I with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, national health service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, devout population of 8.082 billion Torinesis are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Torino. The average income tax rate is 72.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Turinese Empirean economy, worth a remarkable 1,067 trillion Boja Fausses a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 132,072 Boja Fausses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The dessert 'Death by Chocolate' isn't the most lethal dish on the menu, citizens are less concerned with policy and more concerned with whether politicians "call 'em like they see 'em", space shuttles are lying silent on the runway till the Space Agency can work out how to fit a creche and a meditation room into their next spacecraft, and a sudden shout of "surprise!" does not herald a party for teachers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Turinese Empire's national animal is the Red Bull, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Turinese Empire is ranked 32,361^st in the world and 45^th in The Order of the Grey Wardens for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 873.45 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
