The County of Hurepoix is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its compulsory military service and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 13.359 billion Hurepoixians are free to succeed or fail in life on their own merits; the successful tend to enjoy an opulent (but moralistic) lifestyle, while the failures can be seen crowding out most jails.

The relatively small, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Law & Order. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.9%.

The very strong Hurepoixian economy, worth 975 trillion francs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Automobile Manufacturing, and Trout Farming. Average income is 73,020 francs, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 233,734 per year while the poor average 17,316, a ratio of 13.5 to 1.

Hurepoix has designated Hurepoix City as its capital city, cutting-edge missile systems are being retrofitted to twin-prop air force biplanes, Leader has just been declared ruler of Hurepoix in an international press conference, and a major religion has been named as Hurepoix's national religion. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Hurepoix's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
