The State of Hynd is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-working, democratic population of 40.972 billion Hyndians 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 tiny government is primarily concerned with Education, although Industry, Law & Order, and Defense are also considered important, while Spirituality and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 8.5%.

The strong Hyndian economy, worth a remarkable 1,596 trillion betales a year, is quite specialized and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Soda Sales. Average income is 38,966 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.4 times as much as the poorest.

Hynd's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, streakers swamp all public events in order to bare it all, citizens are regularly found digging for treasure in their gardens, and Hynd has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is moderate, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Hynd's national animal is the deer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Hynd is ranked 123,632^nd in the world and 1^st in Hynd for Nicest Citizens, with 13 average smiles per day.
