The Republic of Discussions is a massive, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 3.68 billion Discussionsians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The minute, pro-business government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.8%.

The thriving Discussionsian economy, worth 251 trillion baht a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 68,374 baht, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 242,024 per year while the poor average 13,947, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Discussions's national animal is the sheep.

Discussions is ranked 240,492^nd in the world and 10,368^th in Osiris for Highest Poor Incomes, with 13,947.05 Standard Monetary Units.
