The Republic of The republic of hawk is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Mark fathom with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, frequent executions, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, democratic, devout population of 3.155 billion Hawkians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rubrum. The average income tax rate is 37.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Hawkian economy, worth 150 trillion quads a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. Average income is 47,682 quads, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

More money is spent on policing the welfare system for abuse than on the welfare system itself, mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest-growing field, defense lawyers often argue there's no proof murder victims weren't vampires, and Loud Patriotic Music Day has been ranked the seventh best new holiday of the year. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The republic of hawk's national animal is the red Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

The republic of hawk is ranked 83,144^th in the world and 164^th in The League for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 338.2 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
