The Tri Archy State of Tri Ann is a huge, orderly nation, ruled by Christi Yugondi with an iron fist, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 858 million Tri Anni 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Centrale Pointe. The average income tax rate is 44.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Tri Ann economy, worth 39.8 trillion Tranns a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Cheese Exports, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 46,419 Tranns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
