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

The People's Republic of Triflusia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Charles May with an iron fist, and remarkable for its closed borders, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 6.483 billion Triflusians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mayburg. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Triflusian economy, worth a remarkable 2,673 trillion folksmanis 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, highly specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing and Information Technology. 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 amazing 412,385 folksmanis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Triflusians have replaced bears in a popular idiom, singles on the dating scene no longer worry about looking their age, vacationing Triflusians expect to be treated as royalty, and extraordinary rendition is nothing out of the ordinary. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Triflusia's national animal is the grey wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Redmaism.

Triflusia is ranked 1,388^th in the world and 32^nd in the West Pacific for Largest Black Market, with 4,974 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
