The Parliamentary State of Terrevel is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Herman Dougherty with an iron fist, and notable for its pith helmet sales, suspicion of poets, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical population of 1.511 billion Terrevelians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Terro-Dome. The average income tax rate is 75.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Terrevelian economy, worth 115 trillion Pound Sterlings a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 76,223 Pound Sterlings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Terrevelian football team for the Maxxmas ceasefire consists only of Intelligence Corps personnel, people can often be seen driving to work in war-surplus tanks, light entertainment isn't dead, and citizens seem fixated on 105m x 45m rectangles. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Terrevel's national animal is the Terror Bird, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Terrevel is ranked 224,788^th in the world and 273^rd in United Kingdom for Most Secular, with 14.88 Atheism Rate.
