The Disputed Territories of Trollgaard is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Mustakrakish with an iron fist, and remarkable for its strictly enforced bedtime, frequent executions, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 35.382 billion Trollgaardians 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 enormous, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Environment and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Welfare are ignored. The average income tax rate is 75.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Trollgaardian economy, worth a remarkable 3,159 trillion man suits a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling and Trout Farming. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 89,298 man suits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

The army's use of chemical weapons leaves a bad taste in the mouth, people choose marriage partners by buying a lottery ticket, the arms industry is backed by government subsidies and harsh anti-protest laws are in place, and a little pushing and pulling is needed for big ships to pass. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Trollgaard's national animal is the grendel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Trollism.

Trollgaard is ranked 294,970th in the world and 11,191st in Osiris for Fattest Citizens, with 5.64 Obesity Rate.
