The Democrat Capitalist Republic of Independent Halls is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Professor BeeOhBee with an even hand, and remarkable for its digital currency, unlimited-speed roads, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 5.015 billion Inditeses 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kalakuta. The average income tax rate is 31.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Independent Hallsian economy, worth 551 trillion Indies a year, is led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 110,017 Indies, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

A recent political debate came to a quick close once the ruling party decreed it was "just plain silly", kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll, hospitals fear government fines more than terrorist ransoms, and the general public only knows their favorite politician's first name. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Independent Halls's national animal is the Blue Leopard, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

Independent Halls is ranked 36,279^th in the world and 1,134^th in The North Pacific for Highest Economic Output, with 551 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
