The United States of HJT148 is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, daily referendums, and parental licensing program. The hard-nosed, devout population of 1.869 billion HJT148ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 68.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong HJT148ian economy, worth 127 trillion forints 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 slick, highly efficient black market in Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 68,422 forints, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The most popular stadium acts are one-off performances, election results are often delayed for weeks to count the expat votes, polygraphs are relegated to the dungeon exhibit in castle museums, and gambling is outlawed. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. HJT148's national animal is the kiwi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

HJT148 is ranked 73,707^th in the world and 4,034^th in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 69.51 law-abiding acts per hour.
