The Empire of Thousand Sons is a mammoth, genial nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, keen interest in outer space, and daily referendums. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 8.955 billion Thousand Sonsians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tizca. The average income tax rate is 79.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Thousand Sonsian economy, worth a remarkable 1,872 trillion throne gelts a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 209,107 throne gelts, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

A suspicious number of male students have joined the Ladies' Wrestling League, roads are often attended by round-the-clock construction crews, prisoners have been known to host cooking and home décor television shows, and teenagers sit around on their butts all day. Crime is totally unknown. Thousand Sons's national animal is the raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Thousand Sons is ranked 2,783^rd in the world and 1^st in Nihon for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 101.83 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
