The Empire of Thorn26 is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its parental licensing program, ritual sacrifices, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.67 billion Thorn26ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 83.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Thorn26ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,096 trillion Golds 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, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, Uranium Mining, and Information Technology. 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 164,453 Golds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

The bonfire of the old paper records can be seen for miles around Thorn26 City, truncheon-mounted cameras record the beating of criminals in dynamic HD detail, homeowners are evicted to make way for new runways, and overly distant dads are conscripted into national nappy service. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thorn26's national animal is the Rattlesnake, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Thorn26 is ranked 57,627th in the world and 1,096th in Suspicious for Most Conservative, scoring 75.25 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
