The Democratic Republic of Khodoristan is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 1.339 billion enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Social Welfare, Education, and Defence. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zvenograd. The average income tax rate is 42%, but much higher for the wealthy. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Book Publishing industry.

Citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes, the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes, racial and religious segregation has become rife as the various groups are loathe to mingle, and the government is using tax revenues to provide jobs for the poor. 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 1128th in the region and 45,005th in the world for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry.
