The Dictatorship and Order of Thrillmerica is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Supreme Leader Thrill with an iron fist, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 2.257 billion Thrillmericans 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry, Law & Order, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Environment receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Thrilltopia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 32.0%.

The very strong Thrillmerican economy, worth 142 trillion Thrills a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Soda Sales, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is 63,338 Thrills, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 191,194 per year while the poor average 16,346, a ratio of 11.7 to 1.

Urbanites are banned from bucolic settings for safety concerns, the blood, sweat, and tears of poor Thrillmericans make research institutes rich, the dead are minced up and sold to people in burger form, and children as young as twelve are conscripted into the armed forces. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Thrillmerica's national animal is the Griffin, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Thrillion.

Thrillmerica is ranked 116,990^th in the world and 6,035^th in Lazarus for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 1,670.01 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
