The Silly ahh boys of HoOG is a colossal, safe nation, notable for its suspicion of poets. The democratic population of 3.869 billion HoOGians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 15.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The HoOGian economy, worth 192 trillion lire a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Automobile Manufacturing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 49,521 lire, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.
Military spending is on the increase, punitive tariffs protect local industry, anti-vaxxers claim that injected children are prone to psychotic breaks when they see the 'Queen of Diamonds' playing card, and nudity is frowned upon. Crime is almost non-existent. HoOG's national animal is the swan.
HoOG is ranked 90,360th in the world and 7th in Timoria for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring zero on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
