The Dominion of Trost One is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its frequent executions, otherworldly petting zoo, and irreverence towards religion.

Elevator music has been replaced by thrash metal played at maximum volume, parents often leave their kids in the car while they attend mindfulness meditation sessions, court cases mostly involve lawyers shouting questions at witnesses giving silent shrugs, and voting for pro-Bigtopian candidates is voluntary.
