Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Freed Confederation of Heck21 is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Lazura with an even hand, and remarkable for its public floggings, infamous sell-swords, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless, devout population of 8.378 billion Hekyans 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 government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Diraha. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 36.6%.

The thriving Hektoni economy, worth 650 trillion Wa'is a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Automobile Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 77,604 Wa'is, with the richest citizens earning 6.9 times as much as the poorest.

Animated characters are allowed to stab each other but not hold hands, advert breaks are played at lower volumes to make them easier to ignore, sleazy politicians exploit the Parliamentary Code of Conduct to purge their rivals, and the government is frequently held to ransom by the increasing demands of bloodthirsty pirates. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control. Heck21's national animal is the pigeon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is none.

Heck21 is ranked 205,943^rd in the world and 3,448^th in The East Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 59.07 law-abiding acts per hour.
