The Third Part of the GB Series of The Republic of Thieves is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, daily referendums, and frequent executions. The compassionate, devout population of 745 million Republic of Thievesians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Camorr. The average income tax rate is 49.4%.

The thriving Republic of Thievesian economy, worth 60.3 trillion Crowns a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 80,964 Crowns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

The nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, the price of takeaway food quadruples after 6pm, the media have begun calling the government treasury "Leader's stash", and citizens are prohibited from raising their voice above thirty decibels in commercial districts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Republic of Thieves's national animal is the Wolf Shark, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

The Republic of Thieves is ranked 89,954^th in the world and 28^th in Therin City States for Most Conservative, scoring 70.17 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
