The Commonwealth of Hintuwan is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by President Bulalacao with a fair hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, zero percent divorce rate, and enslaved workforce. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 5.992 billion Hintuwanis enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Welfare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Haijing. The average income tax rate is 49.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Hintuwani economy, worth 599 trillion piloncitoes a year, is led by the Soda Sales industry, with major contributions from Retail, Automobile Manufacturing, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 99,969 piloncitoes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

Autocrats are persona non grata, the nation grinds to a halt on the anniversary of every marginally noteworthy event, citizens finish cleaning up after the annual National Treasure Hunt just in time for the next one, and the traditional Violetist dish of stuffed sheep's head is served with an intense look of shock upon its face. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Hintuwan's national animal is the carabao, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Roman Catholicism.

Hintuwan is ranked 230,625^th in the world and 2^nd in Southern Sea Region for Lowest Crime Rates, with 55.95 law-abiding acts per hour.
