The Republic of HMS Destruction is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its burgeoning Hound population. The quiet, industrious population of 13.203 billion HMS Destructionians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 42.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient HMS Destructionian economy, worth 340 trillion Pounds a year, is highly specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Soda Sales, Retail, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 25,794 Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Gambling is outlawed. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. HMS Destruction's national animal is the Hound, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

HMS Destruction is ranked 198,552^nd in the world and 18^th in The Alpha Legion for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring zero on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
