The Pink Holy Winter Wonderland of Hurricane CDXI is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Hurricane with an iron fist, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, digital currency, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 2.422 billion Hurricaneans are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The medium-sized, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Administration, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while International Aid and Welfare receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yggdrassil. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 44.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Hurricanean economy, worth 441 trillion gold bars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 182,125 gold bars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 864,125 per year while the poor average 22,652, a ratio of 38.1 to 1.

Political spontaneity takes a lot of planning, the judicial branch is strongly influenced by major corporations, gossip magazines have been replaced by mask catalogs, and the HCAF has poured billions of gold bars into anti-spaceship defenses to protect Hurricane CDXI against outsiders (Hurricane CDXI has found 1 easter egg). Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Hurricane CDXI's national animal is the bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Hurricane CDXI is ranked 192,886th in the world and 1st in Buoraask for Largest Populations, with 2.42 billion capita.
