The State of Houghton Franklyn is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 26.673 billion Houghton Franklynians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.
The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.0%.
The very strong Houghton Franklynian economy, worth 939 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 35,234 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 239,553 per year while the poor average 1,893, a ratio of 126 to 1.
Military funding has been stripped back, the streets are increasingly clogged with poverty-stricken beggars, Houghton Franklyn has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of Houghton Franklyn in an international press conference. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Houghton Franklyn's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Houghton Franklyn is ranked 46,797th in the world and 6th in Kuala Lumpur for Most Stationary, with 937.19792102628 days.
