The Federal Republic of Trilkassia is a small, safe nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-working population of 45 million Trilkassians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 23.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Trilkassian economy, worth 2.66 trillion greunias a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Arms Manufacturing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 59,184 greunias, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Blue sky thinkers are reminded that the firmament is actually more of a grey-ish colour, old dogs don't have to learn new tricks but they have to prove they haven't forgotten old ones, traffic cops spend most of their work-hours calculating citizens' monthly income, and kids looking for shark teeth have become ancient history. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Trilkassia's national animal is the twinhead bear.

Trilkassia is ranked 111,786^th in the world and 728^th in Europe for Most Patriotic, with 13.98 flags saluted per person per day.
