The Republic of HJT95 is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its pith helmet sales, lack of airports, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 2.195 billion HJT95ians 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 58.3%.

The powerhouse HJT95ian economy, worth 176 trillion baht a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 80,609 baht, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

The jails are alive with the sound of birdsong, small children are learning a lot of new words from a teacher with Tourette Syndrome, travellers are often forcibly evicted by torch-bearing mobs, and mountain rescuers refer to their new gear as the 'watchamacallits' and 'thingymabobs'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. HJT95's national animal is the turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

HJT95 is ranked 172,511th in the world and 6,717th in Lazarus for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 33,614.03 Standard Monetary Units.
