The Constitutional Emirate of DarThvadrville is a huge, cultured nation, ruled by Prime Minister Himayat Begam with an even hand, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, anti-smoking policies, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 897 million Thvadrus have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Thvadrville. The average income tax rate is 40.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Thvadri economy, worth 99.2 trillion Daris a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 110,592 Daris, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

More sidewalk is dedicated to animals than people, breast milk lattes are the newest fad among hip urbanites, elections are won by the candidate who makes the best 'yo mama' jokes, and the government violently suppresses separatist movements. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. DarThvadrville's national animal is the Kathiawari horse, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

DarThvadrville is ranked 37,955^th in the world and 1,639^th in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 72 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
