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

The United Kingdom of Hyponichtmallieturam is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by King Noel the III with an iron fist, and renowned for its public floggings, pith helmet sales, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 4.012 billion Hyponians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wellington. The average income tax rate is 80.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Hypo-Turamian economy, worth 483 trillion Hypon Turams a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 120,406 Hypon Turams, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.

Big Brother is still watching even when your big brother is dead, soldiers must key in their passwords every time they want to reload their weapons, millions of Hyponians are excellent swimmers, and RPG fans reminisce fondly about when people thought they were evil and dangerous rather than geeky and socially inept. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hyponichtmallieturam's national animal is the Cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Anglicanism.

Hyponichtmallieturam is ranked 134,892^nd in the world and 3,759^th in the Rejected Realms for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 110.42 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
