The Socialist Kingdom of Hjemlandet is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Freja Lindström with an even hand, and remarkable for its absence of drug laws, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 2.155 billion Hjafrans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.
The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Environment, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Solrosstad. The average income tax rate is 73.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but sluggish Hjafrandian economy, worth 53.0 trillion Euros 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 slick, highly efficient, highly specialized black market in Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Gambling. 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 24,589 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Flight attendants rip down curtains with revolutionary fervor, the nation's counterintelligence budget is all up in the air, the only things Hjafrans vote on are cutest Honey Bee competitions, and politicians "baring all" for the camera isn't always a figure of speech. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hjemlandet's national animal is the Honey Bee, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Agnosticism.
Hjemlandet is ranked 70,354th in the world and 3,895th in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 70.01 law-abiding acts per hour.
