The Kingdom of Themision is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, frequent executions, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 801 million Themitias 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 large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Splendorus. The average income tax rate is 39.3%.

The strong Themisionian economy, worth 45.4 trillion sand dollars a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 56,643 sand dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Angst-filled teenagers are rushing off to buy government bonds for some odd reason, Themision has designated Splendorus as its capital city, running a hot dog stand is harder than achieving a doctorate, and hedge fund managers are diversifying into herbaceous borders. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Themision's national animal is the Sandhill Crane, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Themision is ranked 260,354^th in the world and 167^th in Fifth Empire for Largest Populations, with 801 million capita.
