The Federal Republic of The Horizon Federation is a huge, genial nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 633 million Horizonians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Horizon City. The average income tax rate is 59.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The strong Horizonian economy, worth 35.2 trillion Horizon Crowns a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Automobile Manufacturing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 55,608 Horizon Crowns, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The THFBI Channel Tunnel project is plagued by delays, the government is ignoring the latest terrorist atrocities in New Horizon City for fear of causing a fuss, the government is promoting multicultural values with the new 'Just Be Nice, OK?' initiative, and cheering flag-waving citizens don't like to think too hard about politics. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Horizon Federation's national animal is the Common Horizon Crab.
The Horizon Federation is ranked 80,286th in the world and 1,649th in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 98.49 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
