The Oppressed Peoples of Thorn103 is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its remarkably easy parental licensing program, national health service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 4.946 billion Thorn103ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 76.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Thorn103ian economy, worth 710 trillion Golds a year, is mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 143,630 Golds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Citizens are prohibited from raising their voice above thirty decibels in commercial districts, blind students are at a disadvantage now that test papers printed in braille have been discontinued, museums have more touchscreens on display than artifacts, and the immigration office has an express line for people bringing cash in briefcases. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thorn103's national animal is the Wolf, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Thorn103 is ranked 55,635^th in the world and 346^th in Suspicious for Most Secular, with 23.63 Atheism Rate.
