The Dominion of Hydroreactive is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Baron Wolfgang von Strucker with an iron fist, and renowned for its ritual sacrifices, public floggings, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 17.833 billion Hydroreactives are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hydra HQ. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 92.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Hydroreactivean economy, worth a remarkable 4,074 trillion Hydra's Hydrogens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Retail, Soda Sales, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 228,483 Hydra's Hydrogens, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 658,858 per year while the poor average 62,899, a ratio of 10.5 to 1.

Mining safety laws are often more expensive than what's being mined, the "boy who cried wolf" policy makes sick people reluctant to call an ambulance, animated characters are allowed to stab each other but not hold hands, and oil rigs in winter are heated by contained oil slick fires. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hydroreactive's national animal is the Hail Hydra, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to heavy metals seepage into national waterways, and its national religion is Hydra.

Hydroreactive is ranked 20,992nd in the world and 1st in Esquarium for Most Stationary, with 1,577.5211778858 days.
