The Most Serene Republic of Loyal Hal is a colossal, safe nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, democratic population of 9.13 billion Loyal Halians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 26.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Loyal Halian economy, worth 319 trillion Loyalties a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Retail, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 34,962 Loyalties, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Polygamy is legal, space shuttles regularly launch rubbish into space, dealers go from pushing drugs to pushing up daisies, and teachers prefer to give 'Maybe, Maybe Not' tests when dealing with sensitive subjects. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Loyal Hal's national animal is the bison, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Loyal Hal is ranked 96,690^th in the world and 371^st in Dead Sea for Most Patriotic, with 15.4 flags saluted per person per day.
