The Holy Empire of North historia is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, ruled by Moofoose with an even hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 8.829 billion North historians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stirland. The average income tax rate is 58.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient North historian economy, worth a remarkable 1,460 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 165,369 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Maxtopian tourists make expensive pilgrimages to Stirland to enjoy their national art, the end of autumn is celebrated with a bonfire of designer bags, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and art is not complete without a touch of alizarin blood and titanium sweat. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. North historia's national animal is the Lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

North historia is ranked 19,764^th in the world and 264^th in the South Pacific for Highest Average Incomes, with 165,369.73 Standard Monetary Units.
