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

The People's Republic of The Transmanian Islands is a huge, safe nation, notable for its vat-grown people, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and prohibition of alcohol. The compassionate, humorless population of 786 million Transmanian Islanders are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cisn'topolis. The average income tax rate is 85.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Transmanian Islandsian economy, worth 106 trillion National Noncirculatory Credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 135,704 National Noncirculatory Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Debates on whether toilet seats should be left up or down are increasingly commonplace, t-shirts displaying a photo of Leader performing the Full-Monty are selling out, politicians accepting drinks in bars are executed for taking bribes, and soylent products are an expensive commodity due to a lack of volunteers. Crime is totally unknown. The Transmanian Islands's national animal is the Transmanian Tiger, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

The Transmanian Islands is ranked 95,522^nd in the world and 736^th in The Communist Bloc for Highest Drug Use, scoring 74.8 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
