The Medicine Cabinet of THX1138 is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by bowloftoast with an even hand, and renowned for its soft-spoken computers, anti-smoking policies, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, cheerful population of 24.775 billion THX1138sters enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lucas. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient THX1138ian economy, worth a remarkable 8,625 trillion Clangs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 348,154 Clangs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Animal liberationists receive government funding to break into animal research labs, the ruling party has a devil of a time keeping order in the ranks, hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have, and burning twigs to keep warm while lost in the wild is now a felony. Crime is totally unknown. THX1138's national animal is the Cuttlefish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is A Healthy Lack Thereof.

THX1138 is ranked 695^th in the world and 1^st in Schopenhauer for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 27,653.84 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
