“Live long and prosper.”

The Federation of Trachitoria is a massive, economically powerful nation, ruled by John Hawk with an even hand, and remarkable for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 2.268 billion are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, pro-business individuals devotes most of its attentions to Education, with areas such as Social Equality and Defence receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Serenity. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Information Technology industry, followed by Gambling and Tourism.

Criminals are thrown to the silver dragons to repay their debt to society, record sales of 'child-whacking sticks' have been recorded, Trachitoria's heavy congestion charges are the bane of motorists' lives, and child adoption by homosexual couples has been outlawed. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is crippling, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. Trachitoria's national animal is the silver dragon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the united credit.

Trachitoria is ranked 59th in the region and 1,702nd in the world for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector.
