The Republic of Hilifar republic is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 198 million Hilifar republicians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.
The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Law & Order, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 17.8%.
The very strong Hilifar republician economy, worth 13.7 trillion marks a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Gambling, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 69,215 marks, with the richest citizens earning 6.6 times as much as the poorest.
Many marriages go virtually unconsummated, spoiler warnings are now given out before political speeches, inter-species marriages are ignored by the government, and burial ceremonies have become as routinised as tax forms. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hilifar republic's national animal is the porpoise, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Hilifar republic is ranked 33,161st in the world and 67th in The Region That Has No Big Banks for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 2,476.73 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
