Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Most Serene Republic of Tres Fleures is a colossal, genial nation, remarkable for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate population of 7.894 billion are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, the Environment, and Social Welfare. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Holy Garden of Serenity. The average income tax rate is 66%. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

The government is promoting multicultural values with the new 'Just Be Nice, OK?' initiative, people are moving into treehouses in record numbers, voting is compulsory, and children are raised bilingual from an early age. Crime is well under control, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tres Fleures's national animal is the hummingbird, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the bulb.

Tres Fleures is ranked 21st in Equilism and 7,469th in the world for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring 12 on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
