The Small Community of Hurricane 112 is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Hurricane with a fair hand, and renowned for its burgeoning animal population. The democratic population of 5.565 billion Hurricaneans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 31.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Hurricanean economy, worth 212 trillion currencies a year, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Trout Farming, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 38,103 currencies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.

Military spending is on the increase, Hurricanean watches list strained wrists as a common side effect, asking 'does my bum look big in this?' leads to 30 hours of self-esteem classes, and citizens may cast their vote over the internet or phone. Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hurricane 112's national animal is the animal and its national religion is Hurricaneanism.

Hurricane 112 is ranked 108,927^th in the world and 2^nd in Hermitius for Largest Black Market, with 2.18 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
