The Republic of Tabako is a huge, socially progressive nation, ruled by Oscar Davila with a fair hand, and remarkable for its sprawling nuclear power plants, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 951 million Tabaki are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Cadiz. The average income tax rate is 90.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Tabaki economy, worth 105 trillion Tabaki Thallers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Automobile Manufacturing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 111,314 Tabaki Thallers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Teams of painters are converting road signs from horse lengths to kilometers, new urban roads are threatening city parks, in a baffling press conference Oscar Davila proudly dismantled a broken door, and refugees from other nations are flocking to Tabako's border. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tabako's national animal is the Sunfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Tabako is ranked 5,685^th in the world and 26^th in Gay for Safest, scoring 129.02 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
