The Empire of Treznor is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Marcus Treznor with an even hand, and notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, infamous sell-swords, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic, humorless population of 43.398 billion Treznorans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The relatively small, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Devonton. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Treznorian economy, worth an astonishing 27,529 trillion golden dubloons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Soda Sales. Average income is a breathtaking 634,339 golden dubloons, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's museums are real penny-pinchers, students memorise knock-knock jokes for their mandatory twice-a-term Comedy Examinations, some magnifier-wielding Treznorans say Marcus Treznor seems a little lacking in something, and at least 1% of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs budget goes to Marcus Treznor's wardrobe. Crime is totally unknown. Treznor's national animal is the flightless red dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is none.

Treznor is ranked 45th in the world and 2nd in The Vast for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring 27,149.6 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
