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

The Republic of Republic of the Soulless Hord is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by The Soulless with an iron fist, and notable for its infamous sell-swords, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 3.385 billion hordeians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Little Hord. The average income tax rate is 63.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Republic of the Soulless Hordian economy, worth 208 trillion Looneys a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Arms Manufacturing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 61,609 Looneys, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, anything is permissible when wearing latex gloves, intellectual snobbery has the cognoscenti sneering at anyone who doesn't have an opinion on the semiological drift of Umberto Eco's works, and former arsonists can be found on local fire brigades. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Republic of the Soulless Hord's national animal is the Loon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Cult of The Unknown.

Republic of the Soulless Hord is ranked 84,895^th in the world and 2,537^th in The North Pacific for Safest, scoring 88.3 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
