The Heavens of Tianh is a massive, safe nation, ruled by El with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 3.042 billion Elohim are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aither. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 53.5%.

The powerhouse local economy, worth 249 trillion virtues a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Retail, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 81,903 virtues, with the richest citizens earning 5.5 times as much as the poorest.

Coffee-addicted citizens look forward to baristas getting their name wrong at local coffee shops, the police have reaffirmed their tough stance on drugs, every new toxic waste dump comes with a seal of approval from the government's science advisor, and churches across the land are hurriedly installing auto-tune for their choirs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Tianh's national animal is the pigeon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Spiritualism.

Tianh is ranked 249,015th in the world and 99th in Eientei Gensokyo for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -6.35 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
