The Empire of Trega is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Rex Hunter with an iron fist, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, public floggings, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 4.692 billion Tregans 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 large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while International Aid receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Trenten. The average income tax rate is 79.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Tregan economy, worth 391 trillion Tyrs 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 a slick, highly efficient black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 83,389 Tyrs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

One-man canoes fitted with the latest tracking technology leave no room for one man, the government loves seeing the little people fight, running away is an essential part of the elite forces' hand-to-hand training, and police spend their Saturday nights breaking up illegal street races. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Trega's national animal is the Komodo Dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Islam.

Trega is ranked 75,850^th in the world and 2^nd in Freely Guads for Highest Average Incomes, with 83,389.62 Standard Monetary Units.
