The Military Dictatorship of Hudurghew is a huge, safe nation, ruled by The generalissimo with an iron fist, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, anti-smoking policies, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 951 million Hudurghewians 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, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of jingleton primus. The average income tax rate is 43.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Hudurghewian economy, worth 50.1 trillion Satars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 52,728 Satars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Major cities shut down as their local sports team takes to the field every day, crime suspects are forced to submit to blood testing, comatose jurors are the defense's favorite, and thousands of children die every day from easily curable illnesses. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hudurghew's national animal is the Bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Hudurghew is ranked 124,481^st in the world and 10^th in Arctica for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 633.98 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
