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

The Miku of Hibikase is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its parental licensing program, ubiquitous missile silos, and smutty television. The hard-working, cynical population of 5.656 billion Hibikaseans 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Administration, Law & Order, and Industry are also considered important, while International Aid isn't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 50.1%.

The all-consuming Hibikasean economy, worth 519 trillion guilders a year, is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 91,865 guilders, with the richest citizens earning 7.1 times as much as the poorest.

Some are born loving old plays and some have old plays thrust upon them, parents giddily refuse to pay their toddlers' medical bills, more than one company makes the board game Monopoly, and war memorials have been modified to include hammocks for napping. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hibikase's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Hibikase is ranked 127,082^nd in the world and 476^th in Alliance of Supreme Powers for Highest Food Quality, scoring 18.43 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
