“Pro 1QAZ2wsx, Pro Patria, Pro Lege”

The Free State of The TransPecos is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Supreme Carbon Unit 1QAZ2wsx with an iron fist, and renowned for its smutty television, avowedly heterosexual populace, and flagrant waste-dumping. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 34.996 billion TransPecosians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The tiny, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of 1QAZ2wsxburgh. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient TransPecosian economy, worth an astonishing 10,658 trillion Carbonias a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 304,572 Carbonias, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,177,799 per year while the poor average 54,045, a ratio of 21.8 to 1.

Major cities are suffering under water rationing, a man's 250 square-foot apartment is his castle, there's no representation without taxation, and the national guard is mobilized whenever a mother gets separated from her child at the mall. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force. The TransPecos's national animal is the Carbon Canary, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Love Carbon Unit 1QAZ2wsx.

The TransPecos is ranked 1,606^th in the world and 3^rd in Free States of Gaia for Highest Wealthy Incomes, with 1.18 million Standard Monetary Units.
