The Republic of Honlan is a massive, safe nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, keen interest in outer space, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, hard-working population of 3.605 billion Honlanians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 75.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Honlanian economy, worth 474 trillion lupas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 131,599 lupas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Traffic cops spend most of their work-hours calculating citizens' monthly income, knock-knock jokes regularly get removed from websites for being too edgy, the government is attempting to revitalize a gutted private sector, and kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Honlan's national animal is the Wolf, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Honlan is ranked 8,455th in the world and 66th in Refugia for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,760.45 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
