The Federative Republic of Hipearia is a mammoth, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by President Kristina Östlund with an even hand, and renowned for its state-planned economy, keen interest in outer space, and fear of technology. The hard-nosed, democratic, humorless, devout population of 8 billion Hipearians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Növåra. The average income tax rate is 80.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hipearian economy, worth a remarkable 2,086 trillion Hipearian Kronor a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 260,819 Hipearian Kronor, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

National parks have long lines of different gender-specific 'Porta-Pottys', census workers struggle to account for the rapidly increasing number of citizens to tabulate, therapists dispense hugs for heroin dealers and cuddles for crackheads, and they say that Hipearians made a dessert and called it peace. Crime is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Hipearia's national animal is the Reindeer, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Vulpalianism.

Hipearia is ranked 43,526^th in the world and 3^rd in World of Lostoria for Most Developed, scoring 79.04 on the Human Development Index.
