The State of Hanover is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by the Governor with an iron fist, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, state-planned economy, and irreverence towards religion. The cynical population of 24.06 billion Hanoverians 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 enormous, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 61.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Hanoverian economy, worth a remarkable 1,402 trillion betales 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 Retail industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Trout Farming. Average income is 58,277 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.
The Governor's online image is the very model of a modern major leader, the military is recruiting war criminals to join its weapons research teams, commuters are denied boarding for attempting to bring packed lunches onto trains, and children are brainwashed at a young age to accept "love and peace!" as a way of life. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hanover's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Hanover is ranked 48,893rd in the world and 326th in Ancient Lands for Most Stationary, with 917.40707258132 days.
