The Imperium of Husseberg is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Kaiser Reinhold II with an iron fist, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, museums and concert halls, and smutty television. The compassionate, cynical population of 4.617 billion Hussans are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Blumenland. The average income tax rate is 85.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hussebergian economy, worth 736 trillion Imperial Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 159,578 Imperial Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The Hussebergian football team for the Maxxmas ceasefire consists only of Intelligence Corps personnel, billions of Imperial Credits are being blown on orbital weapons development, an increasing percentage of the population's youth have homosexual parents, and the nation's atlases tend to go out of date every few weeks. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Husseberg's national animal is the Ferrets, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Husseberg is ranked 41,882^nd in the world and 699^th in The East Pacific for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring 5,009.71 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
