The Eye of Hurricane 104 is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Hurricane with an iron fist, and remarkable for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, cynical population of 5.565 billion Hurricaneans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 10.7%.
The Hurricanean economy, worth 267 trillion currencies a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Trout Farming, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 48,035 currencies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.3 times as much as the poorest.
The government baselessly accuses foreign dignitaries of being assassins, lobbyists are trying to convince government to recategorize most natural disasters as "non-critical naturogenic inconveniences", the government has declined to declare any particular religion as its 'official' one, and Hurricane has been self-declared as the Most Supreme Magnificent Overlord of Everything You Ever Saw. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hurricane 104's national animal is the animal, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities, and its national religion is Hurricaneanism.
Hurricane 104 is ranked 60,673rd in the world and 1st in Merethin City for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 4,274.59 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
