The Communist Utopia of Travislavania is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Joseph Stalin with an iron fist, and remarkable for its zero percent divorce rate, disturbing lack of elderly people, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 8.632 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 Healthcare, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vussal. The average income tax rate is 68.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Travislavanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,498 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 173,636 Gold Bars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
Airplane passengers who purchase "basic economy" tickets are often assigned seats in the lavatory, foreigners write "made in Travislavania" on shoddy merchandise in hope of receiving a buy-out, weather forecasts are accurate but nobody has the bandwidth to view them, and executions often take hours as amateurs attempt to find veins. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded 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 110,313th in the world and 3,882nd in Osiris for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,422.88 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
