The Colony of Thrymrice is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Cynric with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, aversion to nipples, and compulsory vegetarianism. The compassionate, devout population of 8.457 billion Thrymricians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous government prioritizes Spirituality, although Administration, Welfare, and Education are also considered important, while Defense is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Searobyrig. The average income tax rate is 78.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Thrymricean economy, worth 649 trillion þrymríce Thrymsas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 76,848 þrymríce Thrymsas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Newspapers are running a front-page picture of Cynric holding a crowbar and standing over a bloodied stockbroker, journalists often nap through tedious police press briefings, everyone hates people who encourage hate, and under love's heavy burden Cynric sinks lower in the political right's esteem. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Thrymrice's national animal is the Winged Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Multiytheism.

Thrymrice is ranked 68,647th in the world and 8th in Goawayitsallmine for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 2,775.45 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
