The United Cities of Free Hadera is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Daniel Kreiman with an even hand, and notable for its public floggings, smutty television, and complete lack of prisons. The compassionate, hard-working population of 3.379 billion Haderans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hadera. The average income tax rate is 34.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Free Haderan economy, worth 482 trillion shekels a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 142,900 shekels, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Nine out of ten citizens of Free Hadera answered 'nuclear safety inspector' when asked their occupation, most shekel coins are riddled with bite marks, dubiously qualified Skandilundian barristers keep referring to laws as 'government guidelines', and a new "thought police" branch is being developed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Free Hadera's national animal is the Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Free Hadera is ranked 11,648^th in the world and 26^th in The Kodiak Republic for Highest Food Quality, scoring 151 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
