The Free Land of Holtak is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its state-planned economy, absence of drug laws, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-working population of 12.69 billion Holtakians 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Holtak City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 58.2%.
The strong Holtakian economy, worth 655 trillion Thules a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. Average income is 51,639 Thules, with the richest citizens earning 8.2 times as much as the poorest.
The nation is completely gun-free, the government is giving peace a chance, extreme political groups are outlawed, and private pharmacies close down as medicinal drugs are given away freely by the government. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Holtak's national animal is the Grizly Bear, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Holtak is ranked 194,510th in the world and 91st in Texas for Largest Black Market, with 530 billion Standard Monetary Units.
