The Armed Republic of Hintolt is a very large, safe nation, remarkable for its otherworldly petting zoo, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The quiet, industrious population of 327 million Tolts are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 51.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Hintoltian economy, worth 17.0 trillion Ealabasts a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Uranium Mining, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 51,838 Ealabasts, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Military chiefs are predicting extra funding in this year's budget, sexually-starved male dinosaurs terrorise tourists during weekly breakouts from Mesozoic Park, primary candidates are replaced if they fail to compliment Leader's hair, and flash floods that dams could have controlled regularly ravage small towns in mountain valleys. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hintolt's national animal is the Titino crab, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Hintolt is ranked 163,007^th in the world and 35^th in Terra Pacis for Highest Average Incomes, with 51,838.71 Standard Monetary Units.
