The Gold Empire of Supreme Leader Hadrian is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by St Patrick with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, unlimited-speed roads, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical population of 4.954 billion Hadrianists are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Capitol. The average income tax rate is 76.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hadrianist economy, worth 787 trillion Gold Bars a year, is fairly diversified and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Retail. Average income is an impressive 158,913 Gold Bars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Strip mining of rare earth metals is up while back problems are down, generals have trouble barking orders over the sound of thundering artillery, popular cartoon characters frequently appear in government-sponsored PSAs reminding students to say no to drugs, and the government is notorious for leaving citizens with almost nothing from their inheritance. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Supreme Leader Hadrian's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Jahism.

Supreme Leader Hadrian is ranked 8,241^st in the world and 461^st in The North Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,783.49 Pounds Of Wildlife Per Square Mile.
