The Town of Twin Peaks is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Mayor Dwayne Milford with a fair hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and public floggings. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 16.74 billion Twin Peaksians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Twin Peaks. The average income tax rate is 44.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Twin Peaksian economy, worth a remarkable 1,422 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Tourism. Average income is 84,996 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Building a phallus out of Minecraft blocks counts as indecent exposure, men avoid even so much as looking at female colleagues, scientists earn more grant money for reproducing old experiments than trying anything new, and the media seems excessively interested in what Mayor Dwayne Milford is wearing this season. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Twin Peaks's national animal is the owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is The Black Losge.

Twin Peaks is ranked 43,607^th in the world and 1^st in Washington for Most Cultured, scoring 73 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
