The Republic of Hellas Nova is a fledgling, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate population of 5 million Hellas Novans 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 Law & Order, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 35.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Hellas Novan economy, worth 198 billion Neo-Drachmas a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 39,664 Neo-Drachmas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

The government has officially clarified that "wee on your hands to save time" does not count as proper hygiene, scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, escargots have lost their charm ever since they started to be called 'cooked land snails', and all major public areas are watched by police surveillance cameras. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hellas Nova's national animal is the Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Hellas Nova is ranked 139,481^st in the world and 35^th in womp for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 498.55 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
