The Queendom of Historis is a massive, cultured nation, remarkable for its daily referendums, keen interest in outer space, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.923 billion Historisians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lua. The average income tax rate is 87.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Historisian economy, worth 195 trillion Golds 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 led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is an impressive 101,771 Golds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

In life full of care there is no time to stop and stare, left-wing militias train children how to properly burn down banks, celestial bodies that make revolutions receive revolutions, and criminals identify as innocent. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Historis's national animal is the Vixen, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Atheism.

Historis is ranked 4,718^th in the world and 120^th in The Communist Bloc for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 8,520.31 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
