The Progressive Kingdom of Hendria is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Captain Spock with an even hand, and remarkable for its national health service, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 7.426 billion Hendrians 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 medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 83.6%.
The frighteningly efficient Hendrian economy, worth a remarkable 1,419 trillion pixie dusts a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 191,113 pixie dusts, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.
Visiting dignitaries often end up cuddling in the hot tub with Captain Spock, wars of expansion are described as "peacekeeping operations", the optimally efficient parking strategy for business commuters is referred to as the "traveling salesman problem", and a popular saying is "don't do the crime if you can't smash the lime(stone)". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hendria's national animal is the tribble, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Hendria is ranked 4,876th in the world and 237th in Balder for Lowest Crime Rates, with 117.05 law-abiding acts per hour.
