The Upper Michigan Anarchist of The TH is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Element 115 with an even hand, and notable for its parental licensing program, compulsory military service, and state-planned economy. The compassionate, devout population of 2.17 billion Lithres enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Holmium. The average income tax rate is 38.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong THian economy, worth 212 trillion Thiols a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Soda Sales, Tourism, and Gambling. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 97,773 Thiols, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Motorists must pay to enter inner-cities during peak hours, community-designed sword prostheses are becoming dangerously common, Element 115 has been known to threaten dissenting citizens with a machine gun at press conferences, and Paganism has been named as The TH's national religion. Crime is almost non-existent. The TH's national animal is the Palm Tree, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Paganism.

The TH is ranked 31,617^th in the world and 2^nd in Aurora League for Highest Poor Incomes, with 73,127.41 Standard Monetary Units.
