The State of Theranda is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its complete lack of public education, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 21.738 billion Therandans live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.9%.

The very strong Therandan economy, worth 741 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 34,105 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 231,878 per year while the poor average 1,832, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Surveillance cameras are banned, voting is voluntary, and citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Theranda's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Theranda is ranked 202,946^th in the world and 6^th in Vaduz for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring zero on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
