The Greater Kingdom of Thakia is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Antimonos II with an even hand, and renowned for its smutty television, ubiquitous missile silos, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, devout population of 1.613 billion Thakians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Novgyrod. The average income tax rate is 78.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Thakian economy, worth 181 trillion Thraks a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 112,693 Thraks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The new universal healthcare system has been dubbed Antimonos II-care by its detractors, breast milk is being redistributed from each according to their ability to each according to their need, female smokers cut their hair and don suits to get into male-only clubs, and contestants on Thakia's Got Talent are screened by the government to make sure that they actually have talent. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thakia's national animal is the White Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Promethist Christianity.

Thakia is ranked 116,300^th in the world and 31^st in Azure Watester Federation for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 50 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
