The Republic of Thorn7 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 6.487 billion Thorn7ians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 74.5%.
The frighteningly efficient Thorn7ian economy, worth 968 trillion Idks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 149,222 Idks, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 612,451 per year while the poor average 24,004, a ratio of 25.5 to 1.
The question "please would you...?" is usually laden with passive aggression, veteran cops reminisce over their heavy armor days, scientists are researching the best way to kill off humanity to prevent catastrophic war, and East Lebatuckese astronauts' favorite game during downtime on the Multinational Space Station is 'I Spy'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thorn7's national animal is the Idk, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Thorn7 is ranked 5,749th in the world and 44th in Suspicious for Most Primitive, scoring 115.5 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
