The Republic of Husrien is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Leader with an even hand, and remarkable for its smutty television, anti-smoking policies, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed population of 3.851 billion Husri are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nyhovedstad. The average income tax rate is 87.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Husri economy, worth 800 trillion Husri kroner a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 207,790 Husri kroner, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Children grow up long before the paperwork for their lemonade stands can be sorted out, citizens are spontaneously attracted to each other, diplomats agree to the terms and conditions of peace treaties without reading them, and aid workers deliver life-saving supplies with a devious gleam in their eyes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Husrien's national animal is the seal, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Husrien is ranked 11,416^th in the world and 12^th in Aeternum for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 87.47 Effective Tax Rate.
