The Dominion of Trouble Nation is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Recidivist with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 41.428 billion Trouble Nationians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The minute, corrupt government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Crematoria. Income tax is unheard of.
The frighteningly efficient Trouble Nationian economy, worth an astonishing 20,607 trillion Credits a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 497,420 Credits, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.
Foreign despots proudly bandstand on Trouble Nationian airwaves, priests are being drafted by the church load, religion is strictly forbidden within school grounds, and if foreigners can hit a spittoon from five paces they get a free holiday to Trouble Nation. Crime is totally unknown. Trouble Nation's national animal is the Hellhound, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Trouble Nation is ranked 333,742nd in the world and 5,704th in The North Pacific for Most Pacifist, with 3.68 cheeks turned per day.
