The Republic of HJT443 is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its zero percent divorce rate and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 1.103 billion HJT443ians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The medium-sized, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 13.0%.

The thriving HJT443ian economy, worth 51.5 trillion liberatuses a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Pizza Delivery, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 46,674 liberatuses, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 218,138 per year while the poor average 5,971, a ratio of 36.5 to 1.

The "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The HJT443 City Times is sold out, people often feel unbalanced by their daily commute, the new airport at Mr. Giles' farm is panicking his sheep, and the 'sing-a-long with Leader' album is a popular souvenir. Crime is a problem. HJT443's national animal is the griffin, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

HJT443 is ranked 101,125^th in the world and 3,296^th in Osiris for Most Armed, with 0.43 weapons per person.
