The Patron Saint of Academics of Professor Thomas is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by Venerable Provost with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, sprawling nuclear power plants, and pith helmet sales. The hard-working population of 14.138 billion Professors 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital District. The average income tax rate is 77.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Professorian economy, worth a remarkable 2,129 trillion Academias a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 150,647 Academias, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Older ladies are inundated with offers to help them cross the road, businesses are required to round down their profits, the alien invasion siren sounds eerily like a UFO, and the trail of chickpeas is a controversial part of middle school curriculum.

Professor Thomas's national animal is the elephant seal, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Christianity.

Professor Thomas is ranked 29,529^th in the world and 354^th in Europe for Highest Poor Incomes, with 76,531.49 Standard Monetary Units.
