The Principality of Thysiulia is a tiny, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 16 million Thysiulians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 26.2%.

The Thysiulian economy, worth 992 billion talons a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 62,032 talons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

Signatures have been replaced with illegible scribbles, the government extracts trade concessions from poor nations in exchange for humanitarian aid, Brancaland has gifted over nine thousand putrid moose carcasses to Thysiulia as a reminder of their "special relationship", and milk often tastes of pea. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thysiulia's national animal is the buzzard, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Thysiulia is ranked 79,488^th in the world and 1^st in Confederation of Most Noble Territories for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,914.44 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
