The Federation of Hartopop is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Theodore Bonnaire with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, anti-smoking policies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cheerful population of 13.812 billion Hartopopians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The enormous government prioritizes Education, with Environment, Healthcare, and Industry also on the agenda, while Defense and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kéntrosörbis. The average income tax rate is 91.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Hartopopian economy, worth a remarkable 1,680 trillion standards a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 121,639 standards, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Visiting the best Hartopopian restaurants requires keeping a visa on file, school nurse's offices feature full-service operating suites, science centers and state of the art laboratories are ubiquitous, and voting is compulsory. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hartopop's national animal is the monkey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Hartopop is ranked 288,703rd in the world and 73rd in Enowiden for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -20.54 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
