The Republic of Thorn44 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its ban on automobiles, remarkably easy parental licensing program, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 5.85 billion Thorn44ians 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, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 67.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Thorn44ian economy, worth 915 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 156,542 Euros, with the richest citizens earning 6.8 times as much as the poorest.

Police are saying "bye book" to "by the book", hell hath no fury like an ocean scorned, the nationalistic national anthem inspires citizens to literally spit at foreigners, and it is now illegal for teens to view any sites except Club Kitten and My Little Donkey. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thorn44's national animal is the Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Thorn44 is ranked 49,601^st in the world and 1,125^th in the Rejected Realms for Highest Poor Incomes, with 55,123.21 Standard Monetary Units.
