The Intense Rabblarchy of Hermiones Knickers is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Hermione with an iron fist, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, avowedly heterosexual populace, and infamous sell-swords. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 32.921 billion Hermiones Knickersons are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vibratoria. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 90.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Hermiones Knickersian economy, worth a remarkable 7,436 trillion Crowns a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Retail, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 225,883 Crowns, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 647,639 per year while the poor average 62,682, a ratio of 10.3 to 1.

Michelin-star chefs are being called on to prepare menus for six-year-olds, all weapon research has been banned, citizens no longer take selfies with their dead relatives at funerals, and organisations with 800 in their phone number are often raided by special forces. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hermiones Knickers's national animal is the hippogriff, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Catholic Dingbat.

Hermiones Knickers is ranked 35,363^rd in the world and 18^th in Wysteria for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 5,102.22 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
