The Free Land of Horyun is a very large, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, soft-spoken computers, and devotion to social welfare. The cynical, devout population of 303 million Horyunians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Spirituality. The average income tax rate is 39.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Horyunian economy, worth 9.53 trillion Chuns 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 Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 31,468 Chuns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There are increasing complaints that male AI assistants have aggressive voices, H-SPAN viewership drops as MPs act their age, only AIs know why the nation is rapidly increasing its semiconductor stockpile, and national parks have long lines of different gender-specific 'Porta-Pottys'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Horyun's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Horyun is ranked 251,800th in the world and 13th in BFB Teams for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -6.08 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
