The Loving Couple of Tribute 4rt is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Blue Fang with an iron fist, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, punitive income tax rates, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 9.925 billion Tribute 4rtians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eclipse Lake. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 70.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Tribute 4rtian economy, worth a remarkable 1,267 trillion snails a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 127,744 snails, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 373,193 per year while the poor average 34,531, a ratio of 10.8 to 1.

Most of the nation's wealthy aristocrats are dentists, Blue Fang often plays real life games of Tower Defense against hordes of angry villagers, a milk bath costs more than bathing in money, and toy versions of heroin paraphernalia let kids pretend to be their favourite TV characters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tribute 4rt's national animal is the owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Cards.

Tribute 4rt is ranked 35,103rd in the world and 1st in New World Roman Empire for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 4,343.07 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
