The Rogue Nation of Terriblis is a mid-sized, orderly nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, zero percent divorce rate, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 56 million Terriblisians 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 Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 39.3%.

The Terriblisian economy, worth 2.79 trillion dinars a year, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Pizza Delivery. Average income is 49,895 dinars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

Tumbleweeds are seen blowing through the nation's airspace, wedding bands come in pairs to form wedding manacles, college students make ends meet by selling their kidneys, and scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Terriblis's national animal is the lizard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Terriblis is ranked 303,441^st in the world and 5^th in Atlantic Artificial Zone for Smartest Citizens, with 1.4 quips per hour.
