The Most Serene Republic of Reformed Hoffon is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its prohibition of alcohol, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 231 million Hoffonians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 70.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Hoffonian economy, worth 3.12 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 13,496 dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have, a life spent suffering in silence is considered noble, new government leaflets tell coeliac children to eat more crisps, and women who display their ankles are shunned by society. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Reformed Hoffon's national animal is the trout, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Reformed Hoffon is ranked 104,787^th in the world and 947^th in the West Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 15.88 flags saluted per person per day.
