The Republic of Hansavarta is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Sundararajan with an even hand, and renowned for its aversion to nipples, frequent executions, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 3.142 billion Hansavartans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vyomapura. The average income tax rate is 20.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hansavartan economy, worth 474 trillion Niphrils a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 150,920 Niphrils, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Owning a fishing rod can cause you to be subject to military questioning, stranded mountaineers can watch livestreamed footage of their rescues, buses are widely regarded as the safest way to travel, and construction workers evacuate work sites after finding sharp rocks on the ground. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hansavarta's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Hinduism.

Hansavarta is ranked 250,632^nd in the world and 9,318^th in Lazarus for Most Cultured, scoring 62 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
