The Colony of Hilly is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed population of 22.413 billion Hillyians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Social Policy, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 67.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The large but stagnant Hillyian economy, worth 323 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Furniture Restoration, Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 14,450 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Organ donation rates have hit a new low, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, euthanasia is legal, and surveillance cameras are banned. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hilly's national animal is the tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Hilly is ranked 54,030th in the world and 4th in Glitch for Safest, scoring 101.51 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
