The Freedom of TheSource is a behemoth, cultured nation, ruled by LEADER with an iron fist, and renowned for its frequent executions, free-roaming dinosaurs, and compulsory vegetarianism. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 50.832 billion TheSourceans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Industry, with Administration, Law & Order, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Defense receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of CAPITAL. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.3%.

The frighteningly efficient TheSourcean economy, worth an astonishing 12,524 trillion CURRENCIES a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Pizza Delivery. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 246,399 CURRENCIES, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 867,584 per year while the poor average 50,669, a ratio of 17.1 to 1.

Parole hearings come with a complimentary ten-year extension, civil servants are often voluntold to work for free, claiming it smells like rain can land you in a storm of trouble, and hospitals have to sell their computers on vBay in order to afford the ransomware decryption payments. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. TheSource's national animal is the ANIMAL, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is FAITH.

TheSource is ranked 166,088th in the world and 95th in Nederland for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 630.96 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
