The Modified Acceleration Engine of HotRodia is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 16.936 billion live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, liberal, pro-business individuals devotes most of its attentions to Education, with areas such as Law & Order and the Environment receiving almost no funds by comparison. Income tax is unheard of. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, followed by Book Publishing and Uranium Mining.

Disaster victims are viewed with disdain, Members of Parliament are often found living in cardboard boxes, mining is the nation's most dangerous occupation, and legislation sometimes has to battle through weeks of filibustering to pass. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is crippling, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. HotRodia's national animal is the accelerus rapidamus, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the tequila.

HotRodia is ranked 38th in Texas and 8,822nd in the world for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring 6 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
