Etymology
The name "Thermodolia" comes from the British mispronunciation of "Thômthdóla", which is a compound of the words "Thôm" and "Dóla" meaning "Great" and "Land" respectively with the whole word meaning "Great Land". The source of this mispronunciation is lost to history but it is thought to have come about when British traders asked where they where.

Energy
Thermodolia is currently a leader in Nuclear Energy with 79% of the energy produced in the nation coming from the 156 nuclear power plants. Because of this Thermodolia is a net energy exporter regularly exporting its excess energy to the nations that border it. Thermodoila made use of its massive uranium deposits, second only to Canada.
Other energy sources are Hydroelectric which makes 8% of the energy produced, most of this comes from the massive dams in the northern mountains with a small amount from unconventional sources. Next is coal with 5%. Prior to the invention of the first viable nuclear reactor for civilan power, Thermodolia relied heavily on coal to power its nation. However with the rise of airplanes, cars, better ships, plastics Thermodolia needed a better power source as they do not have a large enough domestic supply of oil hence the switch to nuclear and hydroelectric power.
Other power sources are Renewables at 4%, mainly coming from Wind, Solar, and Geothermal Power, Natural Gas at 3%, and Biomass/Waste at 1%. While Natural gas is not a large power source for the national enrgy grid it is the prime fuel of choice for all road vehicles in Thermodolia, with nearly 72% of all vehicles being powered by some form of Natural gas.
In terms of energy source deposits Thermodolia has large deposits of uranium, coal, and natural gas. While Thermodolia has oil deposits its not enough to independently run its industry therefore Thermodolia has to import oil to meet its demands which has lead several governments to invest in alternatives. Its estimated that Thermodolia holds under 1% of all oil reserves in the world.
