The Free Land of Hydrogen Jukebox is a gargantuan, genial nation, notable for its state-planned economy, enforced nudity, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 15.334 billion Hydrogen Jukeboxians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shuddering Cloud. The average income tax rate is 67.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The large but underdeveloped Hydrogen Jukeboxian economy, worth 496 trillion Howls a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is 32,365 Howls, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, Members of Parliament are often found living in cardboard boxes, Hydrogen Jukebox has designated Shuddering Cloud as its capital city, and flash floods that dams could have controlled regularly ravage small towns in mountain valleys. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hydrogen Jukebox's national animal is the Carl, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Hydrogen Jukebox is ranked 81,006th in the world and 45th in Nudist Dreamland for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 2,607.3 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
