The Republic of Republic of the Soulless Hord is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by The Soulless with an iron fist, and renowned for its avant-garde cinema, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 3.415 billion hordeians 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 large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Little Hord. The average income tax rate is 65.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Republic of the Soulless Hordian economy, worth 210 trillion Looneys a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Arms Manufacturing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 61,503 Looneys, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Private pharmacies close down as medicinal drugs are given away freely by the government, the nationalistic national anthem inspires citizens to literally spit at foreigners, concert halls sport signs proclaiming "No Shorts, Sandals or Swastikas", and streakers swamp all public events in order to bare it all. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Republic of the Soulless Hord's national animal is the Loon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Cult of The Unknown.

Republic of the Soulless Hord is ranked 130,302^nd in the world and 3,357^th in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 73.48 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
