The Democratic Peoples Republic of Tyvette is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by President Garth Sleeman with an even hand, and renowned for its rampant corporate plagiarism, sprawling nuclear power plants, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate population of 15.166 billion Tyvetteans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sympassia. The average income tax rate is 97.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Tyvettean economy, worth a remarkable 2,094 trillion Tyvette Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 138,080 Tyvette Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Retirement homes are often fitted with luxurious suites, the government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid, the nation leads The Communist Bloc in per capita stalking, and sharing vacation pictures requires written consent from the entire beach resort. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tyvette's national animal is the Tyvettean Mountain Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Tyvette is ranked 4,135^th in the world and 98^th in The Communist Bloc for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 16,247.86 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
