The State of Trunk is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by High Commissioner with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 20.13 billion Trunkians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Central Heights. The average income tax rate is 76.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Trunkian economy, worth 78.9 trillion betales a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 3,918 betales, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Trunk has designated Central Heights as its capital city, journalists giggle uncontrollably while reporting the nation's drug bonfires, the government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly, and High Commissioner has just been declared ruler of Trunk in an international press conference. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Trunk's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Trunk is ranked 78,570th in the world and 401st in 0000 for Most Stationary, with 616.35475831048 days.
