The Incorporated States of Thorn212 is a massive, efficient nation, notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, ubiquitous missile silos, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 4.952 billion Thorn212ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 69.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Thorn212ian economy, worth 624 trillion Golds a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 126,165 Golds, with the richest citizens earning 5.9 times as much as the poorest.

Weather forecasts are accurate but nobody has the bandwidth to view them, the nation has always been at war with Bigtopia, the digital money revolution has cashed out, and soldiers who shoot themselves in the foot are regarded as heroes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thorn212's national animal is the Vulture, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Thorn212 is ranked 107,593rd in the world and 1,264th in Suspicious for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 2,570.41 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
