The Republic of Thracia Republic is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by ALi Avkaya with an even hand, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, daily referendums, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate population of 14.17 billion Thracians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Edirne. The average income tax rate is 96.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Thracian economy, worth a remarkable 2,076 trillion TLS a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 146,543 TLS, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Handling people's data is proving an immersive experience, a passport is literally priceless, rugby players that knock each other over always stop to make sure the other fellow is okay, and the sound of wooden legs echo throughout Thracia Republic after the recent introduction of the Foot Tax. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thracia Republic's national animal is the Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Thracia Republic is ranked 9,947^th in the world and 179^th in Europe for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 408.75 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
