The Welfare State of Republik Hintonia is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Markeretik with an even hand, and notable for its unlimited-speed roads, sprawling nuclear power plants, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 9.857 billion Hintonians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hintonia City. The average income tax rate is 48.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hintonian economy, worth a remarkable 2,188 trillion Republikmarks a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 222,074 Republikmarks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Belligerent citizens shoot at passing clouds for 'violating their airspace', surrealist houses shaped like mushrooms and volcanoes dominate the wealthiest neighborhoods, foreign 'investors' have been taking a great interest in the new secret shuttle, and drunk drivers are sent to rehabilitation paid for by the government. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Republik Hintonia's national animal is the Liger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Republik Hintonia is ranked 54,035^th in the world and 48^th in Forest for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 4,837.07 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
