The Holy Winter Kingdom of Rhino Hypolan is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Santa with an even hand, and notable for its daily referendums, fear of technology, and labour-free parental leave. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 7.313 billion Hypolanians 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 Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of North Pole. The average income tax rate is 93.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Rhino Hypolanian economy, worth a remarkable 2,610 trillion Candy Canes a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 356,905 Candy Canes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

A century of peace does not preclude peace negotiations, the nation's official head of religious affairs is an atheist, fewer people are bathing as citizens must show ration stamps before they can turn on their faucets, and a degree in Santa Science with a Minor in Awesomeology starts many political careers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Rhino Hypolan's national animal is the Reindeer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Christianity.

Rhino Hypolan is ranked 2,066^th in the world and 3^rd in The Kingdom of Great Britain for Fattest Citizens, with 45.3 Obesity Rate.
