The Thynt of Thont is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Tyrel Thyon with a fair hand, and notable for its ban on automobiles, daily referendums, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 25.344 billion Thontians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded, outspoken morass — juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Public Transport. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Thont. The average income tax rate is 70.5%.

The large but underdeveloped Thontian economy, worth 551 trillion Thons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 21,778 Thons, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Military funding has been stripped back, citizens can be frequently spotted going about their business stark naked, Thont has designated Thont as its capital city, and Tyrel Thyon has just been declared ruler of Thont in an international press conference. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thont's national animal is the tuna, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Thynism.

Thont is ranked 196,384^th in the world and 3^rd in A Rather Large Puddle for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 197.83 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
