The Lost Island of Thakia is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, smutty television, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 13.112 billion Thakians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Great City. The average income tax rate is 87.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Thakian economy, worth a remarkable 1,739 trillion Graios a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 132,635 Graios, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government nonchalantly sells old nukes to other countries, guide dogs for the blind have been seen using government websites, Thakians firmly believe that their heroes never farted or popped their pimples, and exported livestock are wined and dined before they are flat ironed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thakia's national animal is the Ankhazios, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Thakia is ranked 13,201^st in the world and 1^st in The United Islands of the Atlantic for Longest Average Lifespans, with 91.18 years.
