The Republic of Haltyas is a massive, safe nation, ruled by AVA with a fair hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, frequent executions, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.884 billion Haltyasians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Antorld. The average income tax rate is 79.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Haltyasian economy, worth 285 trillion dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 151,458 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation excels at displacement, an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents, a death threat has replaced 'hello' as an official greeting in the nation, and a government program is underway to revitalize Haltyas's beaches. Crime is totally unknown. Haltyas's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Haltyas is ranked 175,554^th in the world and 3,274^th in The East Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 115.97 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
