The Day of The Triffids is a gargantuan, orderly nation, notable for its restrictive gun laws and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-working, cynical population of 43.344 billion Triffidsians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Healthcare, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 42.6%.

The strong Triffidsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,369 trillion leaves a year, is highly specialized and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Cheese Exports, Trout Farming, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 31,592 leaves, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. The Triffids's national animal is the human.

The Triffids is ranked 243,827^th in the world and 10^th in GREAT Britain for Lowest Crime Rates, with 53.73 law-abiding acts per hour.
