The Pink Holy Winter Wonderland of Hurricane CDXI is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Hurricane with an iron fist, and notable for its ubiquitous missile silos, compulsory military service, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 2.467 billion Hurricaneans are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The medium-sized, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Administration, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while International Aid and Welfare aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yggdrassil. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 44.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Hurricanean economy, worth 450 trillion gold bars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 182,607 gold bars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 866,416 per year while the poor average 22,712, a ratio of 38.1 to 1.

The HCAF has poured billions of gold bars into anti-spaceship defenses to protect Hurricane CDXI against outsiders (Hurricane CDXI has found 4 easter eggs), the nation's favourite colour is blue (Hurricane CDXI has found 4 easter eggs), it is universally agreed that the first 31 issues are the only ones with humor and charm (Hurricane CDXI has found 4 easter eggs), and volunteers are signing up to take arms against an incursion of flesh-eating zombies (Hurricane CDXI has found 4 easter eggs). Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Hurricane CDXI's national animal is the bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Hurricane CDXI is ranked 19,621st in the world and 1st in Buoraask for Largest Black Market, with 174 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
