The Federation of Threnluel is a very large, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and irreverence towards religion. The quiet, industrious population of 164 million Threnards enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Welfare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 34.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Threnluelian economy, worth 7.13 trillion sephs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Automobile Manufacturing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 43,488 sephs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

There's a literal nanny state for the legions of children taken by social services, in distant lands the nation is known as a lovely place that was even better in the good old days, discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation is illegal, and pretending to be prejudiced is a good way to get out of jury duty. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Threnluel's national animal is the Giant Wolf, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Threnluel is ranked 148,066^th in the world and 3,214^th in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 61.18 law-abiding acts per hour.
