The Robot of Hoffania is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Maximillian III with an iron fist, and remarkable for its teetotalling pirates, strictly enforced bedtime, and public floggings. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical, devout population of 7.413 billion Hoffanians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Novus Romanum. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 36.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Hoffanian economy, worth 675 trillion Silver Dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 91,156 Silver Dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 258,772 per year while the poor average 25,648, a ratio of 10.1 to 1.

Novus Romanum's main city thoroughfare has been blocked by a row of leyland cypresses that mysteriously appeared overnight, bris parties are all the rage, ceremonial zweihänders are used in holy rituals, and immigrants who don't like the taste of Hoffanian Turnip Chips are immediately deported. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Hoffania's national animal is the Robot, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Violetism.

Hoffania is ranked 234,055^th in the world and 7,348^th in the Rejected Realms for Fattest Citizens, with 4.9 Obesity Rate.
