The Republic of Hauptgreich is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.423 billion Hauptgreichians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eroda. The average income tax rate is 35.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Hauptgreichian economy, worth 238 trillion kronor a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Trout Farming, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 69,670 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Explicit slash fiction is repackaged for kindergarten kids as stories about friends cuddling friends, businesses are forced to bring all work back within the nation's borders, the government spends more on chasing distant comets than on basic infrastructure, and country folk are sent to obligatory boarding schools to learn how to be civilized. Crime is totally unknown. Hauptgreich's national animal is the fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Hauptgreich is ranked 16,369^th in the world and 7^th in Wintercrest for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 5,476.14 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
