The Federal Republic of Hawaque is a tiny, genial nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, hard-working population of 18 million Hawaqueans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 13.5%.

The Hawaquean economy, worth 999 billion Estigs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Retail. Average income is 55,544 Estigs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Extreme political groups are outlawed, a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway, the nation's laws on image rights are amongst the strictest in the world, and the nation has welcomed its expats back with open arms. Crime is relatively low. Hawaque's national animal is the Girrafe, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Hawaque is ranked 73,719^th in the world and 1,494^th in the South Pacific for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 48,045.9 Standard Monetary Units.
