The Arguments of Hemogard is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Ernest Drake with a fair hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, lack of airports, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.317 billion Hemogardians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded, outspoken morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mariiataria. The average income tax rate is 97.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Hemogardian economy, worth 281 trillion Marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 121,382 Marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Psychiatrists bizarrely accompany Ernest Drake to meetings with foreign heads of state, truancy is as easy as clicking a camera icon, dog breeding has been banned in accordance with recent animal experimentation laws, and escalators are avoided at all costs. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hemogard's national animal is the Trout, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Atheism.

Hemogard is ranked 17,452nd in the world and 18th in The Black Hawks for Most Income Equality, scoring 81.69 on the Marx-Engels Emancipation Scale.
