The Cosmocratic Hyperborea of North Goguryeo is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by President Igor Shoshtakov Sevrinsky with an iron fist, and remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, national health service, and public floggings. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical, cheerful population of 6.589 billion Hyperboreans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mirgrad City. The average income tax rate is 82.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Hyperborean economy, worth a remarkable 2,124 trillion Imperial Hyperborean Rubles a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 322,476 Imperial Hyperborean Rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

Double-parking is on the rise as automobile numbers increase, the nation's weary schoolchildren excel at sport but must count scores on their fingers, interest in globalism never flags, and anti-government web sites are springing up. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. North Goguryeo's national animal is the Russian Thunder Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Church of Crymenathea.

North Goguryeo is ranked 269,307^th in the world and 121^st in Institute of Cellulose for Safest, scoring 10.69 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
