The Forever Alive Republic of Thils is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Herbert VonSchmidz with an even hand, and remarkable for its triple-decker prams, complete lack of prisons, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 10.909 billion Thilsians 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 enormous, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Thils City. The average income tax rate is 91.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Thilsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,603 trillion Glettes a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 146,975 Glettes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
An internet search for the word "bland" produces pictures of Herbert VonSchmidz, theories abound over why conspiracy theorists are being arrested, the Treasury has been accused of flushing money down the toilet, and kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thils's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Christianity.
Thils is ranked 12,885th in the world and 227th in Europe for Most Cultured, scoring 107 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
