Location: The Alliance of Dictators

Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Benevolent Fascist Empire of Bloodmoon-Hyperion is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Emperor Hyperion with an iron fist, and notable for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 15.055 billion are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, liberal government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Defence, and the Environment. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hyperia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry.

Leather-clad individuals can be seen walking their slaves in public parks, the nation is reliant on the principle of mutually assured destruction to maintain its security, all recreational drugs are legal, and punitive tariffs protect local industry. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bloodmoon-Hyperion's national animal is the Acorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Imperial Note.

Bloodmoon-Hyperion is ranked 14th in The Alliance of Dictators and 4,652nd in the world for Healthiest Citizens, with 13 Standard Bananas Ingested per capita per day.
