The Republic of Trambolia is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its smutty television, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 246 million Trambolians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 36.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Trambolian economy, worth 9.83 trillion Euros a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 39,965 Euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Scenic mountain valleys are flooded with water as damming projects get underway, newlywed misogynists complain about their wives keeping their maiden names, kilts and cassocks are viewed with suspicion, and the government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Trambolia's national animal is the Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Trambolia is ranked 216,789^th in the world and 4,198^th in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
