The Holy Empire of Trestovakia is a tiny, genial nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, state-planned economy, and avant-garde cinema. The quiet, industrious population of 16 million Trestovakians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 21.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Trestovakian economy, worth 762 billion Trestovak Crowns a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 47,646 Trestovak Crowns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Studio executives abandon tragic stories of star-crossed lovers because "it's been done", people can't decide between preserving forests and buying print copies of 'Dogman Versus The Giggler', banning party poppers has been a real party pooper, and lobotomies haven't been the same after the practice was severed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Trestovakia's national animal is the Trestovakian Kestrel, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Trestovakia is ranked 65,168^th in the world and 153^rd in Carcassonne for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 146.82 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
