The Universal Darwinists of Tribe of Trib is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Leonidas Aurelius with an iron fist, and notable for its keen interest in outer space. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 2.633 billion are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, pro-business individuals is mainly concerned with Law & Order, although the Environment and Education are secondary priorities. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Allegria. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Tourism and Gambling.

Government spending has hit an all-time low, membership in the state-owned Church of Tribe of Trib is mandatory and all other faith organisations are banned, government officials across Tribe of Trib are being "encouraged" to adopt Platypuss to set an example for the populace, and eight year-olds can be seen lighting up in public areas. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is well under control, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Tribe of Trib's national animal is the Platypus, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is Atheism , and its currency is the Meatball.

Tribe of Trib is ranked 1st in Trib and 59,443rd in the world for Most Authoritarian, with 0.322 Stalins.
