The Community of Thinmere is a very large, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its parental licensing program, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 344 million Thinmereians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 16.2%.

The strong Thinmereian economy, worth 18.9 trillion gldn cns a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 54,991 gldn cns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.

The threat of economic apocalypse brings out the best in people, soldiers stream their classified military operations live for millions of fans, riot police are stationed around paintings of violent protestors, and you can bet your bottom dollar that gambling will cost you an arm and a leg. Crime is moderate. Thinmere's national animal is the xltl, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Thinmere is ranked 208,040^th in the world and 93^rd in One in a Million for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 280.41 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
