The Stop Impersonating Me of Hungry is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by The Chief Chef with an even hand, and renowned for its parental licensing program, smutty television, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, humorless population of 23.101 billion Hungrians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Left Twix Factory. The average income tax rate is 69.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Hungrian economy, worth a remarkable 2,965 trillion Doughnuts 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, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Gambling. 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 an impressive 128,351 Doughnuts, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Legislators toe the party line lest the Sergeant-at-Arms decide to conduct "truncheon practice" on the backbench, the Hungrian Tourism Bureau has described the abolition of coastal defences as a "kick to the groyne", cancer rates amongst the richest in society are inexplicably on the rise, and there is a growing belief that consciousness is a simulated illusion within a computer-generated reality. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hungry's national animal is the Roaming Cheesecake, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Mom's Spaghetti.

Hungry is ranked 295,334th in the world and 20th in Merridel for Most Cultured, scoring 48 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
