The Second Republic of Tretrid is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Prime Minister Robert Evans with a fair hand, and remarkable for its national health service, irreverence towards religion, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 9.787 billion Tretridians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, outspoken government prioritizes Education, although Healthcare, Environment, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tretridia. The average income tax rate is 94.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Tretridian economy, worth a remarkable 1,147 trillion Karubles a year, is highly specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 117,292 Karubles, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Prime Minister Robert Evans has more friends than ever before, every new building project has to undergo a five-year environmental impact study before it can go ahead, you're never too young to learn how to lie with confidence, and parents dread their examinations more than their children. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tretrid's national animal is the Peregrine Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Tretrid is ranked 240,459^th in the world and 7,838^th in The East Pacific for Largest Mining Sector, scoring -18.87 on the Blue Sky Asbestos Index.
