The Free Land of Puerto Thelosia is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, unlimited-speed roads, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cheerful, devout population of 14.344 billion Puerto Thelosians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of San Esperanza. The average income tax rate is 79.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Puerto Thelosian economy, worth a remarkable 1,152 trillion nyans a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Cheese Exports. Average income is 80,336 nyans, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military strategists are questioning the wisdom of subsidizing the economies of sworn enemies, gardeners must genetically test weeds for unique traits before digging them up, the amount welfare recipients spend on fertilizer has exploded, and unwary hikers climbing the bluffs of Mount San Esperanza make great practice for foreign snipers. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Puerto Thelosia's national animal is the whooping veras, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Puerto Thelosia is ranked 118,576^th in the world and 753^rd in Europe for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 23.06 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
