The Empire of Hendrixson Confederation is a small, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 45 million Hendrixson Confederationians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 17.8%.

The strong Hendrixson Confederationian economy, worth 2.64 trillion magic golds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Gambling. Average income is 58,672 magic golds, with the richest citizens earning 6.5 times as much as the poorest.

A stocking with a crooked seam or a tie without a full Windsor knot are grounds for instant dismissal, TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas, organ donation is compulsory, and ADHD now stands for Attention Distracted by Hardware Devices. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hendrixson Confederation's national animal is the deer.
