The Republic of Tropepanaa is a colossal, safe nation, renowned for its aversion to nipples, anti-smoking policies, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.846 billion Tropepanaans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 87.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Tropepanaan economy, worth 839 trillion Dollars a year, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Trout Farming, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 122,561 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Parties that are too noisy are broken up to prevent disturbing wildlife, residents of new housing subdivisions complain about the total absence of supermarkets and restaurants, the hills are alive with the sound of ringtones, and an underground movement of cigarette smokers has sprung up in response to a government ban. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tropepanaa's national animal is the Python, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Tropepanaa is ranked 15,768^th in the world and 1,310^th in Two for Most Corrupt Governments, with 117.97 kickbacks per hour.
