The Borderlands of Terrible helper is a mid-sized, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, devout population of 99 million Terrible helperians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 52.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Terrible helperian economy, worth 3.01 trillion francs a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 30,389 francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Terrible helper's national animal is the beaver.

Terrible helper is ranked 183,333^rd in the world and 19^th in The Colonies of Latin America for Highest Poor Incomes, with 21,922.95 Standard Monetary Units.
