The United Socialist States of Hoqeallistan is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its daily referendums, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 6.447 billion Hoqeallis enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ahunabayev. The average income tax rate is 94.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Hoqeal economy, worth 696 trillion Gekonis a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 108,022 Gekonis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Tours to see the 'wild men of the mountains' are popular with tourists from the big cities, the number of eyes rolled per maths lesson is increasing exponentially, pranking is an art form, and weird kids who eat bugs are breaking the law. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hoqeallistan's national animal is the skink, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Hoqeallistan is ranked 336,371st in the world and 375th in Refugia for Most Patriotic, with 0.43 flags saluted per person per day.
