The Confederated Districts of Treir is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Crumb with a fair hand, and renowned for its deadly medical pandemics, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 14.786 billion Treites are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Syvani. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Treian economy, worth a remarkable 5,515 trillion Lumyns a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 373,021 Lumyns, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,929,521 per year while the poor average 39,178, a ratio of 49.2 to 1.

Treian doors require a Ph.D. to open, cheap and tasteless vegetables flood the markets, earthquake sirens are a leading cause of hearing loss, and every street in the nation contains at least three law firms. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, probably because of the absence of a police force. Treir's national animal is the Red Panda, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Treir is ranked 346^th in the world and 3^rd in Europeia for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 373,021.58 Standard Monetary Units.
