The Dictatorship of Hrodgard is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Hrodgard with an iron fist, and renowned for its closed borders, public floggings, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 10.472 billion Hrodgardians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ironforge City. The average income tax rate is 91.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hrodgardian economy, worth a remarkable 3,989 trillion Nagrands 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, Trout Farming, and Information Technology. 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 amazing 380,977 Nagrands, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The justice of Hrodgard is considered superior to that of other nations, the police think a properly conducted criminal investigation is a real pain, police spend their Saturday nights breaking up illegal street races, and extraordinary rendition is nothing out of the ordinary. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hrodgard's national animal is the sandpiper, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Hrodgard is ranked 4,064^th in the world and 5^th in Confederation of Corrupt Dictators for Most Beautiful Environments, with 2,615.95 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
