The Holy Empire of Thorn294 is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, state-planned economy, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 4.628 billion Thorn294ians 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 enormous, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 90.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Thorn294ian economy, worth 575 trillion laris 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 a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, Uranium Mining, and Tourism. 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 124,280 laris, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

APCs on school runs disgorge kids via assault ramps, a bill to outlaw math homework has been submitted, pretending to be prejudiced is a good way to get out of jury duty, and the first sword of Thorn294 does not run. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thorn294's national animal is the crocodile, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Thorn294 is ranked 204,206^th in the world and 2,715^th in Suspicious for Largest Timber Woodchipping Industry, scoring 818.8 on the Tasmanian Pulp Environmental Export Index.
