The Democratic Republic of Hallipur is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its daily referendums, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.249 billion Hallipurians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nalica. The average income tax rate is 80.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Hallipurian economy, worth 204 trillion nells a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Information Technology. Average income is 62,867 nells, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Visions of giant pink tigers are a common side effect after Hallipurians eat their meals, the nation's most "productive" diamond mine hasn't been operational for seven months, manufacturers of biodegradable plastics have to wait for months to show evidence of organic decomposition, and an internet search for the word "bland" produces pictures of Leader. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hallipur's national animal is the tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Hallipur is ranked 19,654^th in the world and 1,101^st in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 92 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
