The Democratic Republic of Huron League is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by President DeVoss with a fair hand, and renowned for its smutty television, compulsory vegetarianism, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 4.983 billion Huronians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dreamcliff. The average income tax rate is 96.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Huronian economy, worth 805 trillion huronian dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 161,666 huronian dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Animal liberationists receive government funding to break into animal research labs, political visitors are forced to stop ten paces from President DeVoss's throne, mountain rescue missions can end with more people lost than found, and physics lessons mostly involve talking about emotional management techniques. Crime is totally unknown. Huron League's national animal is the Reindeer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Huron League is ranked 12,638^th in the world and 1^st in Great Lakes Alliance for Lowest Crime Rates, with 96.99 law-abiding acts per hour.
