The Epic Scientific Nation of Trinklandia is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Trinkle with an iron fist, and remarkable for its soft-spoken computers, free-roaming dinosaurs, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 4.5 billion Trinklandians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Education, although Defense, Administration, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 67.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming Trinklandian economy, worth 585 trillion Homeworks 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, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. 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 130,042 Homeworks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.
Politicians that report exaggerated crowd sizes for their speeches are dismissed for being delusional, Trinkle's Twitcher account is typically used to share Ostrich memes rather than government policy, Animal Liberationists are regularly arrested, and the military has gone fission for more funding. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Trinklandia's national animal is the Ostrich, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Hilda.
Trinklandia is ranked 11,302nd in the world and 2nd in Greater Temecula for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 10,412.42 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
