The Empire of Tangatarehua is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Empress Tamahine o te Marama with an iron fist, and remarkable for its otherworldly petting zoo, free-roaming dinosaurs, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 5.633 billion Tangata Rehua are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The relatively small, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tamaki. The average income tax rate is 8.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Rehuan economy, worth a remarkable 1,274 trillion kohatus a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 226,206 kohatus, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's leader is normally just referred to as "snuggle-wuggle-huggy-bear", whales in captivity live in little more than glorified goldfish bowls, laser-wielding robots are taking aim at human hearts, and convicts released after being found "wrongfully imprisoned" are surprisingly chill about the whole thing. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Tangatarehua's national animal is the whale, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Tikanga Wairua.

Tangatarehua is ranked 6,689^th in the world and 8^th in Greater Dienstad for Safest, scoring 126.7 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
