The Incorporated States of Thorn212 is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, daily referendums, and digital currency. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 4.744 billion Thorn212ians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 69.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Thorn212ian economy, worth 594 trillion Golds a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 125,345 Golds, with the richest citizens earning 5.8 times as much as the poorest.

Thorn212ian tourists are banned from many nations due to their tendency to randomly explode, Leader's family members carry literal get-out-of-jail-free cards, international tensions are high as Thorn212 threatens any government with the audacity to arrest its citizens, and APCs on school runs disgorge kids via assault ramps. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thorn212's national animal is the Vulture, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Thorn212 is ranked 72,068th in the world and 1st in World Player for Most Authoritarian, with 1,306.39 milliStalins.
