Hawk29

Population6.989 billion

The Republic of Hawk29 is a colossal, orderly nation, remarkable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, compulsory military service, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 6.989 billion Hawk29ians 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 juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 69.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Hawk29ian economy, worth 869 trillion dollars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 124,362 dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 441,762 per year while the poor average 25,230, a ratio of 17.5 to 1.

Black market eau de toilette is made in bathroom labs across the nation, trails to natural wonders are littered with trash from reality film crews, recruitment posters proclaim the army to be both fabulous and fashionable, and emus with strange deformities like three eyes and tentacles have been seen prancing through the countryside where industrial waste is dumped. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hawk29's national animal is the emu, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Hawk29 is ranked 169,216th in the world and 3,686th in Suspicious for Highest Food Quality, scoring 14.01 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
