The Kingdom of Hipanien is a very large, orderly nation, renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, frequent executions, and ban on automobiles. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 408 million Hipanienians 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 relatively small, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 15.6%.

The powerhouse Hipanienian economy, worth 35.9 trillion Pesetapfunds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 87,874 Pesetapfunds, with the richest citizens earning 7.5 times as much as the poorest.

The state auctions off combat drones to fund war reparations, street gangs rule most of the nation's major cities, the country is preparing for war, and women wearing male lounge-wear are quizzed for hours by mental health practitioners. Crime is a problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Hipanien's national animal is the Löwe, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Hipanien is ranked 215,561^st in the world and 55^th in Rosaria for Highest Drug Use, scoring 84.47 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
