The ThE repLubic of THE TrAsh is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by mr dump truck with an iron fist, and notable for its teetotalling pirates, disturbing lack of elderly people, and remarkably easy parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 2.615 billion trash cans 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Administration, Law & Order, and Spirituality also on the agenda, while Welfare and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of mr happys funland. The average income tax rate is 46.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong trash economy, worth 232 trillion scraps a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Basket Weaving, and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 89,052 scraps, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Witches' brews set off Geiger counters, children are often punished for the sins of the fathers, the government spends twice its healthcare budget on replacing stolen pens, and the nation's student exchange programs are something of a one way street. Crime is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. THE TrAsh's national animal is the pigeon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is violetism.

THE TrAsh is ranked 138,337th in the world and 1st in Trashland for Highest Wealthy Incomes, with 129,890 Standard Monetary Units.
