The Floating Island of Hyperbolic Orbit is a gargantuan, cultured nation, notable for its daily referendums, anti-smoking policies, and compulsory military service. The compassionate, devout population of 33.846 billion Hyperbolic Orbitians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The relatively small, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Menaion. The average income tax rate is 29.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Hyperbolic Orbitian economy, worth a remarkable 1,948 trillion Moe Moes a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity. The industrial sector is mostly comprised of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 57,577 Moe Moes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Playing an online nation simulation game legally obliges you to buy the creator's latest novel, the nation grinds to a halt on the anniversary of every marginally noteworthy event, occupational wage levels are based on a crumpled napkin authored by a legendary Menaion bus driver, and grade school teachers mark homework with red "CITATION NEEDED" stamps. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hyperbolic Orbit's national animal is the orbital hato po ppo, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Hyperbolic Orbit is ranked 115,737^th in the world and 4,783^rd in Osiris for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 40,707.03 Standard Monetary Units.
