The Republic of Hawk5 is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory military service, daily referendums, and avant-garde cinema. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 7.655 billion Hawk5ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 36.3%.
The frighteningly efficient Hawk5ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,096 trillion baht a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 143,284 baht, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.
Prisoners work-share to cut down rising costs of keeping them in jail, divorce is illegal, the government says that Possession is nine-tenths of the Lore, and an extra hand on the leg will give a horse-and-a-half of lead in a hundred jiffies on seven furlongs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hawk5's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Hawk5 is ranked 287,086th in the world and 8,378th in Suspicious for Most Stationary, with 4.20210147732 days.
