The Empire of Tripolipoli is a massive, safe nation, ruled by His Supreme Holiness with an iron fist, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies. Its hard-nosed, cynical population of 3.693 billion are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Education, and Defence. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Washington DT. The average income tax rate is 98%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Gambling industry, followed by Book Publishing and Information Technology.

Children spout "Deus Sum" involuntarily throughout the day, prospective parents are cheering on the streets as they no longer need a license to have children, postmen have been arrested in job lots for selling junk mail as home insulation, and teams of painters are converting road signs from horse lengths to kilometers. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tripolipoli's national animal is the anthropomorphic beaver, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is USDAism, and its currency is the new world dollar.

Tripolipoli is ranked 4,493rd in The North Pacific and 99,638th in the world for Shortest Average Lifespan, scoring -38 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
