The Free Land of Hello Strangers is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its lack of airports, absence of drug laws, and exploding hoverboards. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 556 million strangers live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Education, with Defense, Industry, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while International Aid and Public Transport are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Welcome Mat. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.0%.

The thriving stranger economy, worth 41.4 trillion gold ingots a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Gambling, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 74,436 gold ingots, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 288,056 per year while the poor average 13,192, a ratio of 21.8 to 1.

Education and welfare spending are on the rise, children's TV shows are having a gay old time, children are often observed making 'sand angels' in bunkers, and prisoners have been known to host cooking and home décor television shows. Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Hello Strangers's national animal is the worm, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Hello Strangers is ranked 271,725th in the world and 89th in Timoria for Safest, scoring 19.02 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
