The State of HR is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by the Governor with a fair hand, and renowned for its absence of drug laws, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 18.547 billion HRians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.1%.

The very strong HRian economy, worth 666 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Woodchip Exports, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 35,921 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 244,223 per year while the poor average 1,930, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Voting is voluntary, HR has designated Capital Heights as its capital city, The Governor has just been declared ruler of HR in an international press conference, and the government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. HR's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

HR is ranked 288,527^th in the world and 319^th in Omega Prime for Lowest Crime Rates, with 34.52 law-abiding acts per hour.
