The Confederated Districts of Treir is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Crumb with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, deadly medical pandemics, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 14.75 billion Treites are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Syvani. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Treian economy, worth a remarkable 5,482 trillion Lumyns a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 371,690 Lumyns, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,075,632 per year while the poor average 33,162, a ratio of 62.6 to 1.

Graffiti graces every city's streets, immigrants who don't like the taste of Treian Turnip Chips are immediately deported, the nation leads Europeia for unlikely accidents and truffle consumption, and pareidolic SETI scientists swear there's a message from aliens hidden within pi. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, probably because of the absence of a police force. Treir's national animal is the Red Panda, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Treir is ranked 293,218^th in the world and 1,262^nd in Europeia for Nicest Citizens, with 0.11 average smiles per day.
