The of Hikikomori is a massive, orderly nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, keen interest in outer space, and soft-spoken computers. The cynical population of 4.936 billion ████████ are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of ██████████. The average income tax rate is 33.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient ███████ economy, worth 244 trillion ███s a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, Information Technology, and Trout Farming. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 49,562 ███s, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Prisoners due for execution often use their final statement to complain about soggy bread rolls, businesses are abandoning the city centre because of the lack of transport connections, female restaurant chefs are not allowed to have male customers, and it's a long jump to get onto the housing ladder. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hikikomori's national animal is the ████.

Hikikomori is ranked 54,306th in the world and 3,006th in Balder for Most Corrupt Governments, with 34.75 kickbacks per hour.
