The Uncertainty of Small Huts is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by Governor Doubtful Ida Noe with a fair hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 26.954 billion Dwellers are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Education, although Social Policy, Environment, and Welfare are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wonder. The average income tax rate is 87.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Dweller economy, worth a remarkable 4,168 trillion shells a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 154,647 shells, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The volume of paperwork used to complete a single environmental assessment defeats the purpose, all statues and paintings of dogs are being destroyed to avoid offending cat-lovers, the first half of cabinet meetings include Governor Doubtful Ida Noe complaining about the reasonable nation theory (Small Huts has found 5 easter eggs), and the government decides its policies by observing the flight of birds. Crime is totally unknown. Small Huts's national animal is the oyster, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Small Huts is ranked 270,642^nd in the world and 119^th in Equilism for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring -10 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
