The Thank You of Ty is a mammoth, orderly nation, renowned for its enslaved workforce, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.983 billion Tyians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 64.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Tyian economy, worth a remarkable 1,129 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 a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. 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 125,686 golds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 366,115 per year while the poor average 34,113, a ratio of 10.7 to 1.

Tyians ask their doctors whether chili peppers are right for them, the path to inner peace is paved with state-mandated punishment, the Not a Tax Haven Foundation is the most popular charity, and the Elephant is protected from hunting and slowly coming back from the brink of extinction. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ty's national animal is the Elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ty is ranked 53,080^th in the world and 182^nd in Artificial Solar System for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 1,865.72 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
