The Gamesters of Tri-Skelion is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by The Providers with an iron fist, and notable for its frequent executions, parental licensing program, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 8.901 billion Drill Thralls are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Power Station. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Triskelion economy, worth 991 trillion Quatloos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Gambling, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 111,366 Quatloos, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 445,242 per year while the poor average 18,714, a ratio of 23.8 to 1.

Ethnic minorities are often refused admission to some of the nation's best schools, Big Belly is watching you, doctors prescribe medicines but they rarely dispense hope or compassion, and wood-framed catapults are ready to launch diseased corpses into besieged cities. Crime is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Tri-Skelion's national animal is the Thrall, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Tri-Skelion is ranked 22,712th in the world and 31st in United Earth Space Probe Agency for Most Stationary, with 1,503.21065600012 days.
