The State of Hodenturner
is a major power, but world reknowned for its humor and the blending of two conflicting ideologies, liberalism and catholicism, into a working political process. With a long and rich history, Hodenturner has a special place among its people's heart, though a lack of formal alliances with any other major power leaves it vulnerable.
Royal Family
The House of Täst y Cal has been in charge since the 1450s, when Mother Nature reigned over the country. It has been maintained as the royal house since. In modern days, the royal family has fallen into obscurity, and everybody outside the country know its a monarchy. In a poll conducted on June 2007, nearly 33% of those polled could name both the King and Queen, and above all 74% could name the heir.
Family Members
King Gantenbein Täst is the current monarch, at age 34. He is a jester, who is rarely seen inside the palace, leading to many jokes on his behalf.
He is married to Queen Latifah y Cal, aged 29.
The current heir is Bernd Test y Cal, aged 4.
Other family members include Heinz, 2.
Sport
Hodenturners football teams play in the Swiss football leagues. The Trulsen Cup allows access to one team each year in the UEFA Cup; FC Skrotum 1910, a team playing in the Swiss Tango League (i.e. the second level of Swiss football) is the most successful team in the Cup, and scored their greatest success in the European Cup Winners' Cup in 1896 when they defeated the Admins team Paris St Germain.
The Hodenturners national football team has traditionally been regarded as an easy target for any team drawn against them.
This country has a population of about 33,000. As an alpine country, the main opportunity for Hodenturners to excel is in winter sports such as downhill skiing: King Gantenbein won two gold medals in the 1980 Winter Olympics. With nine medals overall (all in alpine skiing), Hodenturner has won more Olympic medals per capita than any other nation. The country's single ski area is Malbun.
Gymnastics is forbidden by King Gantenbein's rule since 2004.
Skrotum, the capital, is considering a bid for either the 2018 Winter Olympics or 2022 Winter Olympics
