“Justice, Piety, Loyalty”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Republic of Therret Rhi is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its smutty television, sprawling nuclear power plants, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 16.464 billion Therret Rhians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Administration, although Industry, Education, and Defense are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Therret Rhi City. The average income tax rate is 77.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Therret Rhian economy, worth a remarkable 3,009 trillion bitcoins 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, quite specialized black market in Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, Basket Weaving, and Automobile 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 impressive 182,795 bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

The populace has developed a mortal fear of the woods, Therret Rhi City's back alleys are rife with sausage eating, all weapon research has been banned, and no one tells their son "you're the man of the house" any more. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Therret Rhi's national animal is the swan, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Therret Rhi is ranked 1,399^th in the world and 2^nd in Hearth of Hestia for Most Corrupt Governments, with 417.96 kickbacks per hour.
