The Republic of Hujen is a gargantuan, cultured nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, pith helmet sales, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 11.765 billion Hujenians 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 78.4%.
The frighteningly efficient Hujenian economy, worth a remarkable 2,987 trillion kronor 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. 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 an amazing 253,892 kronor, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 768,569 per year while the poor average 65,262, a ratio of 11.8 to 1.
Drunk drivers are sent to rehabilitation paid for by the government, the national colors help to make everyone look slimmer, most towns have their Leader High School located on Leader Street, and it is illegal to have the wrong clock time showing on your microwave oven. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hujen's national animal is the dove, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.
Hujen is ranked 41,755th in the world and 128th in Europeia for Largest Populations, with 11.8 billion capita.
