The Nomadic Peoples of Thorn92 is a massive, safe nation, notable for its enslaved workforce, state-planned economy, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 4.637 billion Thorn92ians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 77.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Thorn92ian economy, worth 619 trillion Monies 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, Furniture Restoration, Information Technology, 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 133,656 Monies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
Lifeguards are more concerned with watching for sharks than struggling swimmers, the right to free speech is being drastically curtailed, foreign leaders who don't applaud Leader's speeches are regarded as enemies of Thorn92, and mountain rescuers refer to their new gear as the 'watchamacallits' and 'thingymabobs'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thorn92's national animal is the Lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Thorn92 is ranked 23,485th in the world and 2nd in The Akua Isles for Most Corrupt Governments, with 88.87 kickbacks per hour.
