The People's Republic of Hedo Sana is a small, safe nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 29 million Hedo Sanans 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 Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 69.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The basket case Hedo Sanan economy, worth 175 billion kronor 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 Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Pizza Delivery, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 6,034 kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hedo Sana's national animal is the emu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Hedo Sana is ranked 237,078^th in the world and 295^th in Edoca for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
