The Gònghéguó of Tanbearia is a massive, efficient nation, renowned for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.819 billion Tanbearis love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Xi'an. The average income tax rate is 81.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Tanbeari economy, worth 404 trillion Gold yuan a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 143,618 Gold yuan, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Religious households enthusiastically use whips in private, the nation's most "productive" diamond mine hasn't been operational for seven months, sly spies try to rely on national allies so that they don't die, and tourists ask to stay in the same pleasant accommodations where foreign prisoners are kept. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tanbearia's national animal is the Qīnglóng, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Mínsú zōngjiào.

Tanbearia is ranked 216,760^th in the world and 4,477^th in The North Pacific for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 26,138.48 Standard Monetary Units.
