The United Kingdom of -Hera- is a colossal, genial nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The hard-working, democratic population of 4.708 billion -Hera-ians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 22.0%.

The -Hera-ian economy, worth 226 trillion Delta Eagles a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Gambling. Average income is 48,210 Delta Eagles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.8 times as much as the poorest.

Drunk drivers are sent to rehabilitation paid for by the government, drug lords often avoid prison time by teaching "chemistry" classes to underprivileged youth, bike rage is all the rage, and the -Hera-ian Intelligence Agency has put 'Project Quantum Refrigerator' on hold indefinitely. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force. -Hera-'s national animal is the Kitsune, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

-Hera- is ranked 214,198^th in the world and 7^th in Baal for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 289.48 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
