The Kingdom of Thorn176 is a massive, orderly nation, notable for its rum-swilling pirates, strictly enforced bedtime, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 4.736 billion Thorn176ians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 49.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Thorn176ian economy, worth 559 trillion Latinums a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 118,155 Latinums, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The new foreign policy is "why bother invading neighbours when they can be bought wholesale?", pilots always remember to send their doctors a Maxxmas card, Thorn176ians suffer not the eggplant emoji to live, and acute politicians deride opposition members for being obtuse. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thorn176's national animal is the Python, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Thorn176 is ranked 205,392nd in the world and 2nd in South Indian Ocean Islands for Nudest, with 108.75 cheeks per square mile.
