The United Kingdom of Therimia Gorda is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 11.267 billion Therimia Gordans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Defense, with Healthcare, Welfare, and Public Transport also on the agenda, while International Aid and Social Policy receive no funds. The average income tax rate is 7.9%.

The very strong Therimia Gordan economy, worth 501 trillion Flonnas a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Basket Weaving, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 44,522 Flonnas, with the richest citizens earning 5.0 times as much as the poorest.

Surveillance cameras are banned, the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, and Therimia Gordan scientists are mixing chewing tobacco with bacon flavouring in an attempt to craft the perfect male snack. Crime is a problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Therimia Gorda's national animal is the Bison, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Therimia Gorda is ranked 111,659^th in the world and 1,132^nd in Chicken overlords for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 80.31 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
