The Republic of Hydrapple is a mammoth, efficient nation, notable for its restrictive gun laws. The hard-working, democratic population of 6.047 billion Hydrappleans enjoy frequent elections, which are uniformly corrupted by big-spending corporations buying politicians who best suit their interests.

The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Welfare, and Healthcare. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.5%.

The very strong Hydrapplean economy, worth 336 trillion pokecoins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Pizza Delivery, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 55,701 pokecoins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 180,020 per year while the poor average 13,024, a ratio of 13.8 to 1.

Crime is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Hydrapple's national animal is the Hydrapple.

Hydrapple is ranked 237,934^th in the world and 711^th in Nikosian dead zone for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 222.77 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
