The Freedom of TheSource is a behemoth, cultured nation, ruled by LEADER with an iron fist, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, digital currency, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 50.876 billion TheSourceans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government prioritizes Industry, although Administration, Law & Order, and Healthcare are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of CAPITAL. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.3%.

The frighteningly efficient TheSourcean economy, worth an astonishing 12,535 trillion CURRENCIES a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Pizza Delivery. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 246,399 CURRENCIES, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 867,584 per year while the poor average 50,669, a ratio of 17.1 to 1.

Parole hearings come with a complimentary ten-year extension, civil servants are often voluntold to work for free, claiming it smells like rain can land you in a storm of trouble, and hospitals have to sell their computers on vBay in order to afford the ransomware decryption payments. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. TheSource's national animal is the ANIMAL, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is FAITH.

TheSource is ranked 1,672^nd in the world and 3^rd in Nederland for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 30,156.8 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
