The Kingdom of Trockland is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Wilhelm IV with a fair hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, keen interest in outer space, and daily referendums. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 4.455 billion Trocklandians 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Gramtown. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 31.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Trocklandian economy, worth 595 trillion Eiches a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 133,776 Eiches, with the richest citizens earning 7.9 times as much as the poorest.

Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Gramtown to enjoy their national art, voting is voluntary, things are looking up for patients accidentally prescribed erectile dysfunction medication, and ranchers are adept at mimicking wolf attacks. Crime is totally unknown. Trockland's national animal is the Red Panda, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.

Trockland is ranked 51,369th in the world and 20th in Flanelistan for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 4,592.25 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
