The Democratic Kingdom of Trackeendy is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Roxas Marek with a fair hand, and remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads. Its hard-nosed, intelligent population of 13.411 billion enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Religion & Spirituality, Law & Order, and Education. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shinso. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Automobile Manufacturing industry.

The minority inevitably have their addenda vetoed, CEOs can't hear the term 'Fire Sale' without bursting into tears, businesses that prove successful are immediately broken up, and prospective parents are cheering on the streets as they no longer need a license to have children. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Trackeendy's national animal is the Ashisogi Draceil, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is Tsukitensa, and its currency is the Dosu.

Trackeendy is ranked 2,609th in Balder and 100,201st in the world for Shortest Average Lifespan, scoring -42 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
