The Confederacy of Hanturu is a very large, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 192 million Hanturuans are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 72.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but stagnant Hanturuan economy, worth 3.33 trillion Hintroes 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 dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Pizza Delivery, and Trout Farming. Average income is 17,346 Hintroes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Getting an autograph has become harder than ever, the tenet of free speech is held dear, the government is reining in public spending, and the nation's official head of religious affairs is an atheist. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hanturu's national animal is the Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
Hanturu is ranked 53,708th in the world and 166th in NationStates for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 579.38 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
