The First Warden of Benevolent Thomas is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Thomas with an even hand, and remarkable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, humorless population of 21.905 billion Wardens enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fort Triumph. The average income tax rate is 72.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Warden economy, worth a remarkable 2,790 trillion Golds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 127,370 Golds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There is one competing standard, child support loans with high interest rates are available in Warden banks, 10-year-olds who struggle with integrating by parts are considered slow learners, and hordes of tourists are ruining the environment. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Benevolent Thomas's national animal is the Barkspawn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Benevolent Thomas is ranked 16,333rd in the world and 6th in The Order of the Grey Wardens for Largest Populations, with 21.9 billion capita.
