The Basket Weaving Factory State of Hoffania is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Unit 0001 with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, prohibition of alcohol, and complete lack of prisons. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 15.135 billion Robots are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Factories 1-397. The average income tax rate is 50.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Robotian economy, worth a remarkable 2,311 trillion 1s and 0s a year, is highly specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Basket Weaving, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 152,721 1s and 0s, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Sanitary products are sold in brown paper at hairdressers' salons, orphanages are closing their doors as the government forces parents to actually raise their children, throwing garbage out of your house's front window makes it legally someone else's problem, and the nation continues to depend on foreigners for food. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Hoffania's national animal is the Robot, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is The Cult of the Artificial Intelligence.

Hoffania is ranked 315,276th in the world and 6,274th in the Rejected Realms for Most Secular, with 0.86 Atheism Rate.
