The Anti-Fascist Mercenaries of The Battlehawks is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 37.235 billion Battlehawksians 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 medium-sized, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 33.7%.

The powerhouse Battlehawksian economy, worth a remarkable 2,292 trillion Pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. Average income is 61,557 Pounds, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 217,893 per year while the poor average 12,556, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Harry Potter books are banned, Animal Liberationists are regularly jailed, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and employers may fire workers without giving any reason. Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Battlehawks's national animal is the Bal Shan'ar, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

The Battlehawks is ranked 169,848th in the world and 7,430th in Lazarus for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 57.01 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
