“For the good of the people, for the good of the nation”

Overview • Factbook • Dispatches • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Parliamentary Republic of Trixeland is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by High Chancellor Dominic Soto with a fair hand, and renowned for its national health service, daily referendums, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 9.071 billion Trixelandians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Urbem Ex Arboribus. The average income tax rate is 85.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Trixelandian economy, worth a remarkable 1,072 trillion Trixes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 118,194 Trixes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Occam's razor has sliced to pieces any childhood belief in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy, popular sunny beaches always have a cloudy outlook, the official Trixelandian Phrase Book weighs as much as a small child, and science centers and state of the art laboratories are ubiquitous. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Trixeland's national animal is the Panther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Trixeland is ranked 128,472^nd in the world and 802^nd in Europe for Most Patriotic, with 12.47 flags saluted per person per day.
