The Empire of Thorned Roses is a huge, safe nation, remarkable for its parental licensing program. Its compassionate, cynical population of 831 million are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Defence. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Thorned Roses City. The average income tax rate is 69%, and even higher for the wealthy. A healthy private sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry.
Wildlife near farms is slowly becoming extinct, Thorned Roses has one of the largest offshore wind farms in the world, corporate 'hostile takeovers' now involve ICBMs and main battle tanks, and guns are banned. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thorned Roses's national animal is the Centaur, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Drachma.
Thorned Roses is ranked 939th in the region and 28,744th in the world for Greatest Rich-Poor Divides.
