The Republic of Theyra is a titanic, genial nation, ruled by Tale Dace with an even hand, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 23.407 billion Theyrans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aurora. The average income tax rate is 78.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Theyran economy, worth a remarkable 1,485 trillion Vatus a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 63,446 Vatus, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is hoping that medical aid will speak louder than human rights abuses, libraries have replaced overdue book fines with mandatory mental health assessments, you can't put down the nation's attitude to pet health, and escargots have lost their charm ever since they started to be called 'cooked land snails'. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Theyra's national animal is the Mountain Monitor Lizard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Way of Ten.

Theyra is ranked 91,150^th in the world and 4,684^th in Balder for Most Developed, scoring 63.2 on the Human Development Index.
