The Communist Utopia of Travislavania is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Joseph Stalin with an iron fist, and notable for its frequent executions, infamous sell-swords, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 4.904 billion Travislavanians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vussal. The average income tax rate is 51.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Travislavanian economy, worth 825 trillion Gold Bars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 168,273 Gold Bars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

The government has little issue with allowing its citizens to languish in foreign jails, hidden bedroom-cams are installed to catch mothers doing their kids' homework, fortified nursing homes are wracked with daily skirmishes, and popular websites like NationStates are blocked for "national security". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Travislavania's national animal is the siberian bear, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Stalinism.

Travislavania is ranked 18,563^rd in the world and 961^st in The North Pacific for Smartest Citizens, with 65.33 quips per hour.
