The Fourth Harbinger of Tracian Empire is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Emperor Vaeros II with an even hand, and remarkable for its teetotalling pirates, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and national health service. The compassionate, hard-working population of 27.365 billion Thracians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vathora. The average income tax rate is 73.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Thracian economy, worth a remarkable 4,081 trillion Auriols a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 149,165 Auriols, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Representatives soak in mineral pools at the new capitol building day spa, a fashion designer has been arrested for inciting hatred after claiming redheads couldn't pull off vermillion, nothing in life is promised except death and government support, and you need a signed affidavit from a registered psychiatrist to claim that you have crazy low prices. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tracian Empire's national animal is the Imperial Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Vayonism.

Tracian Empire is ranked 325,560^th in the world and 9^th in International Northwestern Union for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 19.41 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
