The Eye of Hurricane 37 is a mammoth, safe nation, remarkable for its suspicion of poets. The hard-working population of 6.231 billion Hurricaneans 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 22.8%.
The Hurricanean economy, worth 247 trillion currencies a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 39,725 currencies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.
The mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas, the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller, the studies of art and philosophy are banned, and landless farmers wander forlornly in the government's many national parks. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hurricane 37's national animal is the animal.
Hurricane 37 is ranked 229,276th in the world and 1st in Southfield for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 30,668.06 Standard Monetary Units.
