The Based Semi-Stratocracy of Hellburnenstein is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by President General Rogerman Jorerheadson with a fair hand, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, sprawling nuclear power plants, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 5.372 billion Hellburnensteiniards 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 large, corrupt government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Administration, Education, and Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yaculp Bay. The average income tax rate is 92.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hellburnensteinian economy, worth 895 trillion Lucifers 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 a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. 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 impressive 166,742 Lucifers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

State dairy cow's milk is a shear-thickening fluid that can stop small-caliber bullets, adverts proclaim it has to be healthy if the Mornay uses hand-grated Gallopavian Gruyère, people often get liposuction to reduce their air fares, and when flight control tells pilots to alter course the usual reply is "No, YOU move!". Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hellburnenstein's national animal is the Chickendeldestruction, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Hellburnenstein is ranked 8,254^th in the world and 3^rd in sus is mildly sus my guy for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 448.22 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
