The Welfare State of Republik Hintonia is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Markeretik with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, frequent executions, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, cheerful population of 8.63 billion Hintonians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The relatively small, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hintonia City. The average income tax rate is 26.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hintonian economy, worth a remarkable 1,817 trillion Republikmarks a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 210,551 Republikmarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Most ambassadors from Republik Hintonia retire only a few years after being appointed, cops shout apologies with every swing of their baton, RPG fans reminisce fondly about when people thought they were evil and dangerous rather than geeky and socially inept, and most pop videos prominently feature the Hintonian flag. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Republik Hintonia's national animal is the Liger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Republik Hintonia is ranked 176,921^st in the world and 154^th in Forest for Most Corrupt Governments, with 3.17 kickbacks per hour.
