The Republic of Thezo is a huge, efficient nation, remarkable for its spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-working population of 588 million Thezoans are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.
The medium-sized, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 16.5%.
The very strong Thezoan economy, worth 29.4 trillion florins a year, is led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 50,052 florins, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 210,599 per year while the poor average 7,719, a ratio of 27.3 to 1.
Crime is a problem, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Thezo's national animal is the fox, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.
Thezo is ranked 93,583rd in the world and 3rd in The seas for Most Extreme, scoring 24.56 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
