The United Socialist States of Hadro is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Naro with a fair hand, and renowned for its smutty television, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 3.932 billion Hadroans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

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

The frighteningly efficient Hadroan economy, worth 529 trillion kromers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Basket Weaving, and Tourism. Average income is an impressive 134,759 kromers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Children wondering what happens to pets after they die are shown where the compost heap is, planespotters are emigrating in droves, there's a shortage of swinging hot spots as land development grinds to a halt, and any citizen who cries is immediately assigned a psychiatrist. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hadro's national animal is the Ant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Hadro is ranked 87,829^th in the world and 1,667^th in The North Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 3,738.17 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
