The State of Half Tree Hollow is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 20.926 billion Half Tree Hollowians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.0%.

The very strong Half Tree Hollowian economy, worth 874 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 41,805 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 284,227 per year while the poor average 2,246, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Surveillance cameras are banned, voting is voluntary, all tariffs have been abolished, and the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Half Tree Hollow's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Half Tree Hollow is ranked 6,654th in the world and 1st in Lome for Most Stationary, with 2,870.58522532428 days.
