The Republic of Hepburn Audrey is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Audrey Jamie Isabella Lisbeth Hepburn with an even hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The democratic population of 7.94 billion Hepburn Audreyians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tiffany's. The average income tax rate is 66.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Hepburn Audreyian economy, worth 134 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is 16,916 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Some say Audrey Jamie Isabella Lisbeth Hepburn has gone MAD after authorizing the development of apocalyptic biological weapons, election ballot papers are so long that unused ones are recycled as toilet roll, helicopter parenting is on the rise, and a blood-red mark on the doorframe means a building must be passed over for destruction. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hepburn Audrey's national animal is the Orange Kitten, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Hepburn Audrey is ranked 219,919th in the world and 51st in Valentine Day for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -3.67 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
