Overview • Factbook • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Parliamentary Kingdom of New Hantumburg is a huge, socially progressive nation, ruled by Prime minister with a fair hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, smutty television, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 973 million New Hantumburgishers are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Großcattstadt. The average income tax rate is 75.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming New Hantumburgian economy, worth 101 trillion New Hantumburgers 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 mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Soda Sales. Average income is an impressive 104,284 New Hantumburgers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The reams of paperwork accompanying any electronic item are a recognised contributor to national deforestation, octogenarian swimsuit models insist that they've still got it, attendance of fathers at PTA meetings is at an all-time high, and lawyers spend as much time preparing their make-up as they do their briefs. Crime is totally unknown. New Hantumburg's national animal is the New Hantumburgish Leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

New Hantumburg is ranked 57,715^th in the world and 49^th in The Creeds for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 51.48 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
