The Pink Holy Winter Wonderland of Hurricane I is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Hurricane with an iron fist, and renowned for its aversion to nipples, pith helmet sales, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 2.914 billion Hurricaneans 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, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Administration, Industry, and Law & Order also on the agenda. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yggdrassil. The average income tax rate is 64.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hurricanean economy, worth 609 trillion gold bars a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 208,993 gold bars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Hurricane spends Halloween alternatively growling and howling (Hurricane I has found 4 easter eggs), a doomsday device lies untouched in a public park (Hurricane I has found 4 easter eggs), the HIAF has poured billions of gold bars into anti-spaceship defenses to protect Hurricane I against outsiders (Hurricane I has found 4 easter eggs), and pony-derived products are greasing the wheels of industry (Hurricane I has found 4 easter eggs). Crime, especially youth-related, is a serious problem. Hurricane I's national animal is the bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Hurricaneanism.

Hurricane I is ranked 60,880th in the world and 1st in otaku Utopia for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 1,902.27 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
