The Tired Anti State of Hiltavia is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Zombie Robert Bob Hilton with an iron fist, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, keen interest in outer space, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 3.762 billion Hilts are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Hilton City. The average income tax rate is 43.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hilton economy, worth 500 trillion Bartered Goods a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Retail, Beef-Based Agriculture, Furniture Restoration, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 133,135 Bartered Goods, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Old dogs don't have to learn new tricks but they have to prove they haven't forgotten old ones, it's a comma comma comma comma comma rebellion, the new 'Things We Stole From Other Countries' exhibition at the National Museum of Antiquities is a hit, and kids are told they can be whoever they want to be when they grow up. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Hiltavia's national animal is the Dove, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Distraction.

Hiltavia is ranked 22,582^nd in the world and 338^th in The East Pacific for Highest Poor Incomes, with 86,622.82 Standard Monetary Units.
