The United Socialist States of Khazhkhovija is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, devout population of 954 million Khazhkhovijans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Grim Batol. The average income tax rate is 77.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Khazhkhovijan economy, worth 82.8 trillion Aknas a year, is dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 86,760 Aknas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

All recreational drugs are legal, takeaway food bought on the weekend now comes with fifty percent more sweat and tears, the moral worth of national allies is judged by their GDP, and the best defense is a good fence. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Khazhkhovija's national animal is the Gorilla, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Khazhkhovija is ranked 29,552^nd in the world and 310^th in The Communist Bloc for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 5,728.71 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
