The Free Land of Hollo is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its vat-grown people, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 13.919 billion Holloans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sky Harbor. The average income tax rate is 92.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Holloan economy, worth a remarkable 1,646 trillion Mojoes a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 118,278 Mojoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Ghost regiments exist only on paper, crossword puzzles have been co-opted as a symbol of racial discrimination, the government puts forth the claim that harming young girls is wrong, and only the rich can afford the latest medical innovations. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hollo's national animal is the Raven, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Hollo is ranked 10,692^nd in the world and 161^st in 10000 Islands for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 394.82 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
