“Strength Through Freedom”

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

The Most Serene Republic of Hurtania is a huge, genial nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 558 million Hurtanians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The tiny, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of District of Alec. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.0%.

The strong Hurtanian economy, worth 36.5 trillion Hurts a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Retail. Average income is 65,464 Hurts, with the richest citizens earning 7.1 times as much as the poorest.

Ignorance is considered a politically desirable quality, physics lessons mostly involve talking about emotional management techniques, giggling elementary school newspaper reporters want to know why Leader is a silly poophead, and the criminal underworld is awash with sausage smuggling. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hurtania's national animal is the turtle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways.

Hurtania is ranked 232,614^th in the world and 412^th in Crimson Spire for Most Pacifist, with 33.75 cheeks turned per day.
