The Grand Duchy of Theorbo is a huge, safe nation, notable for its national health service, ban on automobiles, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, devout population of 703 million Theorbonians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Crumhorn. The average income tax rate is 62.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Theorbonian economy, worth 58.3 trillion florins a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 82,897 florins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The mummified remains of former kings are apparently discovered every time a tourist loses their wallet, there have been reports of people marrying housepets, politicians "baring all" for the camera isn't always a figure of speech, and kids who move from attending a public school in the city to the country often struggle in goat milking class. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Theorbo's national animal is the nightingale, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Theorbo is ranked 10,943rd in the world and 27th in Concord for Safest, scoring 119.91 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
