The Federation of Terre des Riches is a very large, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, free-roaming dinosaurs, and irreverence towards religion. The cynical population of 118 million Terre des Richesians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 26.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Terre des Richesian economy, worth 7.89 trillion Argents a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 66,893 Argents, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Leader's new android secretary is the latest media darling, sexually-starved male dinosaurs terrorise tourists during weekly breakouts from Mesozoic Park, pollsters are out of a job as elections have been cancelled, and online weather reports are predicting five years of glorious sunshine for Terre des Riches. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Terre des Riches's national animal is the Okapi, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Terre des Riches is ranked 212,385^th in the world and 4,530^th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -3.07 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
