The Republic of Hakkefjord is a gargantuan, cultured nation, renowned for its pith helmet sales, ubiquitous missile silos, and stringent health and safety legislation. The quiet, industrious population of 12.389 billion Hakkefjordians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government prioritizes Defense, although Administration, Industry, and Education are also considered important. The average income tax rate is 45.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Hakkefjordian economy, worth 765 trillion Hugs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Tourism, and Information Technology. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 61,754 Hugs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation has gained millions of new citizens overnight, construction workers evacuate work sites after finding sharp rocks on the ground, urban entrepreneurs are busy introducing cockroaches into restaurant kitchens, and politicians and casino owners who so much as wander into the same room are arrested on the spot. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hakkefjord's national animal is the Dragon.

Hakkefjord is ranked 99,883^rd in the world and 24^th in Shinka for Lowest Crime Rates, with 65.88 law-abiding acts per hour.
