The P3nguin D3puty Councillor of Trivalve is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Pr3sid3nt Indra Cormac with a fair hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 2.263 billion Trivalv3ans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hiv3mind. The average income tax rate is 74.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Trivalvean economy, worth 337 trillion Kyanit3s a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 149,253 Kyanit3s, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's beloved 'good-natured doormat' is inundated by begging letters, the government's giant servers are often used as a tourist trap, passive-aggressive congratulations cards inform mums-to-be that their pregnancy is their greatest achievement in life, and students are known to arrive at school in their pyjamas. Crime is totally unknown. Trivalve's national animal is the Pinnacarid, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Ath3ism.

Trivalve is ranked 9,852^nd in the world and 270^th in the South Pacific for Most Efficient Economies, scoring 100.1 on the Krugman-Greenspan Business Outlook Index.
