The Righteous Republic of Thaltopia is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Ratko Soika with an iron fist, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, sprawling nuclear power plants, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 15.144 billion Thaltians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Oраоgrad. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 2.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Thaltopian economy, worth a remarkable 3,720 trillion Dinars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Gambling. Average income is an amazing 245,706 Dinars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,269,027 per year while the poor average 2,625, a ratio of 864 to 1.

Children high on sugar can often be seen bouncing off walls, designer cars make no distinction between poor people and speed bumps, security reviews double as corporate marketing, and land owners find the earth being pulled out from under them. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Thaltopia's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Pravoverni Orthodoxy.

Thaltopia is ranked 299,794th in the world and 66th in Lands End for Highest Poor Incomes, with 2,625.84 Standard Monetary Units.
