The Republic of Hiybkk is a huge, efficient nation, renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed population of 509 million Hiybkkians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Miscaw. The average income tax rate is 69.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming Hiybkkian economy, worth 55.2 trillion Gold Coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 108,481 Gold Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Intelligence agencies frequently invite passers-by into their secret vaults for tea and biscuits, online weather reports are predicting five years of glorious sunshine for Hiybkk, the government only invests in infrastructure after a natural disaster, and government officials are held to the highest standard of morality. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hiybkk's national animal is the eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.
Hiybkk is ranked 45,870th in the world and 104th in World Republic for Most Patriotic, with 29.42 flags saluted per person per day.
