The Mode of Transportation is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Pete Buttigieg with an iron fist, and renowned for its smutty television, free-roaming dinosaurs, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 21.457 billion urbanists are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Industry, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of downtown. The average income tax rate is 98.4%.

The frighteningly efficient urbanist economy, worth a remarkable 5,063 trillion infrastructures a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 235,985 infrastructures, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 671,805 per year while the poor average 66,138, a ratio of 10.2 to 1.

Consuming ecstasy is a common rite of passage, hunters often become the hunted, giant beards and handlebar moustaches are increasingly popular, and fiscal policy hawks decry the sizable "panem et circenses" fund added to the public budget. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Transportation's national animal is the high-speed rail, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is smart growth.

Transportation is ranked 2,867^th in the world and 1^st in Seinfeld for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 13,085.43 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
