The Medicine Cabinet of THX1138 is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by bowloftoast with an even hand, and notable for its unlimited-speed roads, keen interest in outer space, and conspicuous electricity pylons. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 30.029 billion THX1138sters are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lucas. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient THX1138ian economy, worth an astonishing 12,136 trillion Clangs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 404,173 Clangs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, the government guarantees extra-soft tissues to fire-snorting elephants, the word "sexagenarian" has taken on a whole new meaning, and town nameplates frequently raise giggles from passing tourists. Crime is totally unknown. THX1138's national animal is the Cuttlefish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is A Healthy Lack Thereof.

THX1138 is ranked 331,845^th in the world and 20^th in Schopenhauer for Highest Disposable Incomes, with zero Standard Monetary Units.
