The Empire of Trimble is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Jay Larson with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, compulsory military service, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, cheerful, devout population of 5.648 billion Trimbleans 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 relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Larson City. The average income tax rate is 38.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Trimblean economy, worth a remarkable 1,065 trillion Marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 188,655 Marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

There's no representation without taxation, the nation is stuck in permanent election mode as politicians demand constant do-overs, protests are legal but strictly supervised, and the "swords to plowshares" policy has created a generation of farmers that can kill a yak from 200 yards away. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Trimble's national animal is the Dragon fish, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Geepeeessism.

Trimble is ranked 45,842nd in the world and 207th in 10000 Islands for Most Stationary, with 952.3942168562 days.
