The City state of Tryust is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Matthew Valeria with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working population of 2.449 billion Tryustians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tryust City. The average income tax rate is 70.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Tryustian economy, worth 316 trillion marks a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 129,422 marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Nose plugs are the latest Tryustian fashion accessory, roads are often attended by round-the-clock construction crews, the government has declared that sharing is uncaring, and air purifiers fight smoke machines on Tryustian stage setups. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tryust's national animal is the swan, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Antexium.

Tryust is ranked 176,697^th in the world and 173^rd in Declansburg for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 95.97 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
