The Pipes of TRR 1 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Paul Pipe with an even hand, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, zero percent divorce rate, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 21.476 billion Trians 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rejected Pipe. The average income tax rate is 72.9%.

The frighteningly efficient TRR 1ian economy, worth a remarkable 3,195 trillion Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Information Technology. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 148,782 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.8 times as much as the poorest.

Dog breeding has been banned in accordance with recent animal experimentation laws, the airship business has been driven out of the country by strict regulations and high fines, the right to free speech is being drastically curtailed, and the TRR 1ian Arts Council pays teenagers to sit through opera performances. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. TRR 1's national animal is the eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Pipism.

TRR 1 is ranked 20,696^th in the world and 1^st in Northern Ameria for Most Corrupt Governments, with 98.02 kickbacks per hour.
