The Republic of Thorn56 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its ritual sacrifices, pith helmet sales, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.328 billion Thorn56ians 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, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Administration, and Law & Order are also considered important. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 87.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Thorn56ian economy, worth 994 trillion Euros 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 black market in Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. 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 157,160 Euros, with the richest citizens earning 7.6 times as much as the poorest.

The overhead luggage compartment is often full, recognizing the Thorn56ian flag qualifies you for citizenship, anyone who sneezes at border crossings is turned away, and "Mad Max: Returning Again to Barrydrome" is this year's unexpected summer blockbuster. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thorn56's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Thorn56 is ranked 301,071st in the world and 3,856th in Suspicious for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 43.47 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
