The Republic of Three Musicians is a massive, safe nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, pith helmet sales, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed population of 1.949 billion Three Musiciansians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 28.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Three Musiciansian economy, worth 90.2 trillion lire a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Cheese Exports, Automobile Manufacturing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 46,284 lire, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Traffic jams are a common sight due to construction work from a massive overhaul of the nation's freeways, hospitals have poor data security but send lots of bodies to be encrypted, sniffer dogs are trained to follow clouds of fruity-smelling vapor, and adults pretending to be teenage girls claim to have wholesome motives. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Three Musicians's national animal is the horse, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Three Musicians is ranked 88,587^th in the world and 302^nd in NationStates Museum of Art for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 2,152.85 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
