The Corporate United Replubics of Thebernesen is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Zander Ryker with an even hand, and remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-working population of 797 million Thebersenians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Jaint Juan. The average income tax rate is 15.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Thebernsenian economy, worth 83.8 trillion Makanis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Retail, Cheese Exports, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 105,127 Makanis, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

The government has officially clarified that "wee on your hands to save time" does not count as proper hygiene, commercial jingles have been ham-handedly forced into world renowned symphonies, criminals rejoice in the streets as the entire police force is sent away on a training retreat, and citizens are permitted to carry concealed handguns. Crime is almost non-existent. Thebernesen's national animal is the SEAGULL, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Thebernesen is ranked 243,932^nd in the world and 674^th in Carcassonne for Most Primitive, scoring -135.34 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
