“If you can dream it, we can half-ass it”

The Galactic Empire of Huntaer is a gargantuan, economically powerful nation, ruled by Lord Vorman with an even hand, and remarkable for its parental licensing program. Its hard-nosed, hard-working population of 11.574 billion are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, pro-business government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is effectively ruled by the Department of Defence, with areas such as the Environment and Social Welfare receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Huntaria. The average income tax rate is 100%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry.

Citizens live in superstitious fear of the mysterious glowing clouds that float over Huntaer, the government has enacted freedom of information, people regularly disappear off the streets and all evidence of them is destroyed, and construction of the Really Big Hadron Collider is underway. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Huntaer's national animal is the kirtu dragon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, its national religion is Kirtir, and its currency is the Credit.

Huntaer is ranked 1st in the region and 349th in the world for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector.
