The Republic of Hansavarta is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Sundararajan with an even hand, and notable for its zero percent divorce rate, pith helmet sales, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 3.242 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 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 22.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hansavartan economy, worth 491 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 reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 151,717 Niphrils, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Politicians sweat as journalists scour internet archives for any mention of them, alcoholism is the newest import from Dàguó, RPG fans reminisce fondly about when people thought they were evil and dangerous rather than geeky and socially inept, and youth rights demonstrations often end in vicious snowball fights. 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 182,993^rd in the world and 7,287^th in Lazarus for Safest, scoring 53.23 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
