The Imperium of Husseberg is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Kaiser Reinhold II with an iron fist, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and smutty television. The compassionate, cynical population of 3.247 billion Hussans are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Blumenland. The average income tax rate is 82.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hussebergian economy, worth 529 trillion Imperial Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 162,980 Imperial Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government is continually probing the galaxy in search of alien life, enemy navies sail within bombardment range of major coastal cities with impunity, it is illegal to make racist remarks in public, and war vets look after war animals. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Husseberg's national animal is the Ferrets, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Husseberg is ranked 9,424^th in the world and 228^th in The East Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 102.16 law-abiding acts per hour.
