The August Commonwealth of Heredation is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Michelle Ril with an even hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, national health service, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, cheerful population of 10.371 billion Heredites are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Arebreak. The average income tax rate is 94.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Heredite economy, worth a remarkable 1,319 trillion Casteses a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 127,188 Casteses, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Lending money has become a major liability, ample hospital parking is half-filled by the luxury cars of hospital managers, the question "please would you...?" is usually laden with passive aggression, and escaped birthday balloons are torpedoed out of the sky. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Heredation's national animal is the Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Atheism.

Heredation is ranked 290,024th in the world and 763rd in NationStates for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -18.36 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
