The Republic of HJT223 is a massive, orderly nation, remarkable for its ban on automobiles, keen interest in outer space, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 1.544 billion HJT223ians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality is ignored. The average income tax rate is 42.2%.

The HJT223ian economy, worth 104 trillion liberatuses a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Uranium Mining, and Gambling. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 67,649 liberatuses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

Black tea is only available on the black market, the government baselessly accuses foreign dignitaries of being assassins, dancing with your first cousin is a misdemeanor, and terrorist videos start by thanking their sponsors. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. HJT223's national animal is the griffin, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

HJT223 is ranked 217,244^th in the world and 7,755^th in Balder for Most Armed, with 0.24 weapons per person.
