The Righteous Republic of Thaltopia is a titanic, orderly nation, ruled by Ratko Soika with an iron fist, and remarkable for its parental licensing program, strictly enforced bedtime, and triple-decker prams. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 15.198 billion Thaltians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Oраоgrad. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 2.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Thaltopian economy, worth a remarkable 3,742 trillion Dinars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Gambling. Average income is an amazing 246,245 Dinars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,274,005 per year while the poor average 2,631, a ratio of 864 to 1.

Children are afraid to go out at night due to the ubiquity of hardened jaywalkers, gamblers often find their stakes burnt, the lives of former ski town residents are going downhill, and it is an honour for assistant regional managers to be buried alongside their bosses. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Thaltopia's national animal is the Golden Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Pravoverni Orthodoxy.

Thaltopia is ranked 1,174th in the world and 2nd in Lands End for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 9,696.42 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
