The Republic of Trafeigan is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by President Hector Kavelian with a fair hand, and notable for its public floggings, pith helmet sales, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.002 billion Trafeiganians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ferlanden. The average income tax rate is 68.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Trafeiganian economy, worth 345 trillion Flauns a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 115,183 Flauns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is making attempts at curtailing the flood of spam emails with little progress, voting is voluntary, Faith of Kalka has been named as Trafeigan's national religion, and battlefield gains are quickly lost when enemies don't respect a time-out. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Trafeigan's national animal is the Trafeiganian White-Tailed Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Faith of Kalka.

Trafeigan is ranked 278,302^nd in the world and 272^nd in The Union of Democratic States for Most Primitive, scoring -311.77 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
