The Holy Realm of Thyrgga is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Alaric with an iron fist, and notable for its enslaved workforce, state-planned economy, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 20.952 billion Thyrggers 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 relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Education, Industry, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Social Policy and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Whelburgh. The average income tax rate is 27.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Thyrggish economy, worth a remarkable 7,910 trillion Thyrggish marks 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology and Arms Manufacturing. 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 amazing 377,563 Thyrggish marks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Female brains are believed to heat up dangerously when 'overclocked', battlefield gains are quickly lost when enemies don't respect a time-out, Big Belly is watching you, and the song 'They Got an Awful Lot of Coffee in Thyrgga' is a smash hit. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Thyrgga's national animal is the Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Antruwo.

Thyrgga is ranked 190,581st in the world and 4,561st in Balder for Most Stationary, with 60.8367318978 days.
