The Republic of Hawk3 is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, zero percent divorce rate, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 8.014 billion Hawk3ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 73.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hawk3ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,227 trillion rubles a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 153,175 rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Forest fires have dropped dramatically as there are hardly any forests left, the nation's atlases tend to go out of date every few weeks, edutainment video games are taking Hawk3's students to the next level, and citizens with artificial limbs are forbidden to serve as beauty pageant judges. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hawk3's national animal is the bison.

Hawk3 is ranked 62,784^th in the world and 1,433^rd in Suspicious for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 3,707.05 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
