The Republic of HJT453 is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its unlimited-speed roads, disturbing lack of elderly people, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 903 million HJT453ians are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.

The medium-sized, moralistic, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 21.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The HJT453ian economy, worth 35.3 trillion liberatuses a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Pizza Delivery, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 39,074 liberatuses, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

It takes months to get the proper permits for a child's first tricycle, armed security details escort librarians to their homes, retiring citizens are dragged away in the middle of the night by mysterious men in black suits, and H-SPAN viewership drops as MPs act their age. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force. HJT453's national animal is the griffin, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

HJT453 is ranked 141,582^nd in the world and 6,644^th in Osiris for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 700.97 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
