Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Democratic Republic of Khodoristan is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Vincent Harling with a fair hand, and remarkable for its devotion to social welfare. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 6.113 billion hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Education, although Social Welfare and Healthcare are on the agenda. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mezhdet. The average income tax rate is 69%, and even higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.

Long arduous trials are held for the most trivial of offences, main battle tanks stalk the woods of Khodoristan in search of White Deers, Khodoristan has one of the largest offshore wind farms in the world, and almost all of Khodoristan's water is piped into the country from abroad for exorbitant prices. Crime is totally unknown. Khodoristan's national animal is the White Deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Dollar.

Khodoristan is ranked 4,299th in The North Pacific and 92,608th in the world for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -4 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
