The Republic of Hawk7 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, free-roaming dinosaurs, and smutty television. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 7.206 billion Hawk7ians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 60.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hawk7ian economy, worth 978 trillion francs a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 135,803 francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Sniffer dogs are trained to follow clouds of fruity-smelling vapor, Hawk7ian diplomacy is by the book, the term cold case has taken on a very literal meaning, and the nation has an international reputation for compassion. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hawk7's national animal is the cobra, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Hawk7 is ranked 286,156th in the world and 8,341st in Suspicious for Most Stationary, with 4.20025425628 days.
