The Federal Republic of Xinghuangdong is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Prime Leader Chiang Lee Sen with an iron fist, and remarkable for its frequent executions, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 1.103 billion Xinghuanese are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Guomenxing. The average income tax rate is 21.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Xinghuangdongian economy, worth 102 trillion Xing Yuan a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 92,881 Xing Yuan, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

The youth vote is only counted when kindergarten teachers ask who drew the best picture, cleaners are very careful not to bump into the big red button on Prime Leader Chiang Lee Sen's desk, military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description, and citizens are prohibited from raising their voice above thirty decibels in commercial districts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Xinghuangdong's national animal is the Panda, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Xinghuangdong is ranked 267,879^th in the world and 2^nd in Northern Legion Republic for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring -8.94 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
