The Principality of Herault is a gargantuan, genial nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, ban on automobiles, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cynical population of 14.265 billion Heraultians 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 Defense, Healthcare, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 31.3%.

The Heraultian economy, worth 776 trillion denars a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Woodchip Exports industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Gambling, and Arms Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 54,439 denars, with the richest citizens earning 5.4 times as much as the poorest.

Laser-wielding robots are taking aim at human hearts, arbitrary election rules are considered sacrosanct, the judicial branch is strongly influenced by major corporations, and weird or unusual crimes merit cruel and unusual punishments. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Herault's national animal is the dragon, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Herault is ranked 206,227^th in the world and 16^th in Lennart for Most Extreme, scoring 14.57 on the Paul-Nader Subjective Decentrality Index.
