The Federal Republic of Halundon is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Roberto Morcas with an even hand, and renowned for its triple-decker prams, fear of technology, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 1.554 billion Halundonians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Malina. The average income tax rate is 71.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Halundonian economy, worth 189 trillion Pesos a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 121,823 Pesos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Minor parties are virtually absent in Parliament, muscular women are banned from competing in sporting competitions, patriotic citizens chant "there's only one Halundon" at foreigners, and the government blames all suspicious phenomena on flying saucers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Halundon's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Roman Catholic.

Halundon is ranked 93,661^st in the world and 4,400^th in the South Pacific for Most Income Equality, scoring 41.6 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
