The Matriarchy of Thorn205 is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its daily referendums, ubiquitous missile silos, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.491 billion Thorn205ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 80.3%.
The frighteningly efficient Thorn205ian economy, worth 431 trillion Deneroes a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 123,646 Deneroes, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.
Reporters often lose their jobs over fact-checking errors, police regularly arrest families playing Monopoly, counselors have to sign pledges supporting gay rights before they can speak to any patients, and academics are questioning the quality of the nation's newly-reprinted science textbooks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thorn205's national animal is the Cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Thorn205 is ranked 16,828th in the world and 99th in Suspicious for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,316.37 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
