The Invincible Monarchy of Thiothard is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Emperor Wolfenback with an iron fist, and remarkable for its frequent executions, free-roaming dinosaurs, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.787 billion Thiotharis are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Richtergate. The average income tax rate is 63.0%.

The all-consuming Thiothari economy, worth 445 trillion pounds a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Furniture Restoration, and Gambling. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 77,067 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.

CEOs can't hear the term 'Fire Sale' without bursting into tears, insurers refuse to offer service to anyone within a mile of the coast, every diamond ring sold is accompanied by a twenty-five page analysis and a waiver, and everyone apparently sends Emperor Wolfenback hair-filled lockets, offers to die heroically, and poetic desires to co-parent a child. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thiothard's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Haqq.

Thiothard is ranked 287,783^rd in the world and 7^th in Tradeborough Straits for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -36.19 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
