The Heroics of Team Hawkeye is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Kate with an even hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, state-planned economy, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 9.993 billion Hawkeyes 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kuraigana. The average income tax rate is 98.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Team Hawkeye economy, worth a remarkable 3,093 trillion cenzes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Book Publishing, Tourism, and Retail. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 309,527 cenzes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Students are known to arrive at school in their pyjamas, Coco the Clown has been elected to the nation's parliament, conductors wield diamond-encrusted batons to fit in with their freshly gilded surroundings, and the delay between passed legislation and real world implementation is often a decade or longer. Crime is totally unknown. Team Hawkeye's national animal is the hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Moravian.

Team Hawkeye is ranked 300,096th in the world and 48th in Gypsy Lands for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring -13.22 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
