The Nomadic Peoples of Helmingas is a very large, socially progressive nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 390 million Helmingas enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hornburg Port. The average income tax rate is 68.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Helmingasian economy, worth 26.8 trillion Eorls a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Basket Weaving, and Book Publishing. Average income is 68,605 Eorls, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Government workers are more efficient and more unhappy than ever, a well-funded social safety net protects the unfortunate, the nation faces constant invasions by foreign boy bands, and one can wake up in Helmingas and have breakfast in Bigtopia. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Helmingas's national animal is the Horse of Eorl, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Helmingas is ranked 303,626^th in the world and 33^rd in The Embassy for Largest Black Market, with 14.0 billion Standard Monetary Units.
