The Borderlands of Athrid HullHund is a massive, cultured nation, notable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, lack of airports, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.477 billion Athrid HullHundians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New HullHund City. The average income tax rate is 75.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Athrid HullHundian economy, worth 58.2 trillion Lithuamiuns a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Tourism. Average income is 39,393 Lithuamiuns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation has opened its arms to an influx of refugees, people who have never eaten chicken are told it tastes a bit like crocodile, advertisements for jobs in the sciences run in fashion magazines, and adult magazines are having a sales resurgence as internet anonymity disappears. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Athrid HullHund's national animal is the panther, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
