The Republic of Hyosung is a gargantuan, orderly nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 26.585 billion Hyosungians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Spirituality, with Welfare, Social Policy, and Public Transport also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 58.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Hyosungian economy, worth 72.4 trillion asdfs a year, is highly specialized and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Soda Sales, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 2,724 asdfs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hyosung's national animal is the asdf.

Hyosung is ranked 135,088^th in the world and 45^th in The Glorious Nations of Iwaku for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 42 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
