The Moss Lands of Friendship of Homalia is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by John Caratte with an even hand, and notable for its state-planned economy, keen interest in outer space, and soft-spoken computers. The compassionate population of 12.011 billion Homalians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Homalia City. The average income tax rate is 92.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Homalian economy, worth a remarkable 1,636 trillion Gold bars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 136,234 Gold bars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Noises louder than a whisper have been prohibited by law, most fires are already out by the time the bucket brigade gets to them, celebrity chefs are thought to be the progenitors of all food, and handling people's data is proving an immersive experience. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Homalia's national animal is the Cow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Wira.

Homalia is ranked 32,837^th in the world and 685^th in The North Pacific for Highest Average Incomes, with 136,234.94 Standard Monetary Units.
