The Republic of Hawk26 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its public floggings, parental licensing program, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 6.748 billion Hawk26ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 35.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Hawk26ian economy, worth 748 trillion deniers a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 110,852 deniers, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.
Almost all products in Hawk26 are hand-crafted due to strict employment laws, new "Worker's Strike" laws set out who is allowed to strike a worker, foreign spirits are hard to find due to an abundance of "Cletus and Jim Bob's Homemade Hawk26ian Moonshine", and homeowners on prime real estate have been seen dodging giant bulldozers with cartoon characters painted on them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Hawk26's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Hawk26 is ranked 287,151st in the world and 8,402nd in Suspicious for Most Stationary, with 4.18678204268 days.
