The City State of Thaulandi is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its public floggings, infamous sell-swords, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 10.466 billion Thaulandians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stallhaven Port. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 3.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Thaulandian economy, worth a remarkable 1,794 trillion Florins a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Soda Sales, and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 171,431 Florins, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,546,334 per year while the poor average 2,322, a ratio of 665 to 1.

Theft is considered to be okay if the crime happened a long time ago, pictures of government employees with expensive Pearbooks 'working' on exotic beaches dominate local tabloids, priests are being drafted by the church load, and dinosaur breeders have a yabba-dabba-doo gay old time in Thaulandi. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Thaulandi's national animal is the Owl, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is None.

Thaulandi is ranked 220,061^st in the world and 28^th in The Sportsbook for Healthiest Citizens, with 0.39 Bananas Ingested Per Day.
