The 2nd Republic of Heds Sloopacran is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by King James Tiberius Brandish with an iron fist, and notable for its museums and concert halls, absence of drug laws, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 9.189 billion Heds Sloopacranians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Roundbottom. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 55.2%.
The all-consuming Heds Sloopacranian economy, worth 845 trillion bitcoins a year, is led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Woodchip Exports, and Pizza Delivery. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 92,063 bitcoins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 260,608 per year while the poor average 26,005, a ratio of 10.0 to 1.
A TV celebrity dominates the nation's newest democratic political party, wood-framed catapults are ready to launch diseased corpses into besieged cities, octogenarian swimsuit models insist that they've still got it, and groups of government workers are declared protected tribes if they venture too deep into the Capitol. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Heds Sloopacran's national animal is the lion, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Church of Larry of the Latter-Day Paints.
Heds Sloopacran is ranked 94,799th in the world and 56th in The Regected Realns for Safest, scoring 84.83 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
