The Democratic Republic of Hundermenschen is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Atlas Koch with a fair hand, and remarkable for its public floggings, pith helmet sales, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 19.498 billion Hundermenschenians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zolana. The average income tax rate is 86.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hundermenschenian economy, worth a remarkable 3,265 trillion Hundermenschen Marks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 167,482 Hundermenschen Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The world still seems flat to some people in space, the nation's children are known for being even more apathetic and cynical than their parents, the phrase 'spreading like wildfire' is no longer in the public lexicon, and Hundermenschenians suffer not the eggplant emoji to live. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hundermenschen's national animal is the Timber Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Hundermenschen is ranked 26,782^nd in the world and 4^th in Lyceni for Nicest Citizens, with 19.85 average smiles per day.
