The Grand Duchy of Hadiera

“To whom commits, shall receives my mercy”

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

The Grand Duchy of Hadiera is a small, safe nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, public floggings, and frequent executions. The democratic, devout population of 29 million Hadierans 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 medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 26.5%.

The fair Hadieran economy, worth 948 billion Hajs a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Trout Farming, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 32,716 Hajs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

All major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras, preschools put children down for naps with milk, cookies, and a gruesome story of vengeance, leather-clad individuals can be seen walking their slaves in public parks, and sexuality-questioning teenagers are placed in locked rooms with dirty magazines and lewd posters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Hadiera's national animal is the Hadier Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Hadiera is ranked 46,236^th in the world and 1,464^th in The North Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 706.18 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
