The Eye of Hurricane 60 is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Hurricane with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 5.788 billion Hurricaneans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eye of the Storm. The average income tax rate is 23.7%.

The Hurricanean economy, worth 271 trillion currencies a year, is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Cheese Exports, and Book Publishing. Average income is 46,927 currencies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.0 times as much as the poorest.

Serial killers who are released early distribute death but not their seed, the examiners who examine examiners are being examined by examiners, black market eau de toilette is made in bathroom labs across the nation, and the government denies any involvement in the release of the Hot Load computer virus. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hurricane 60's national animal is the animal, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Hurricaneanism.

Hurricane 60 is ranked 191,705^th in the world and 1^st in ZICKTONIA for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 307.36 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
