The Democratic Republic of Hacame is a massive, socially progressive nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls. Its compassionate population of 3.345 billion 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of the Environment, Education, and Public Transport. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Aemaeth. The average income tax rate is 70%, and even higher for the wealthy. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

All streets are privately owned toll roads, the government has ordered a moratorium on referenda, droves of former desperados are applying to join the border police, and recruitment posters proclaim the army to be both fabulous and fashionable. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hacame's national animal is the Falcon, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Unit.

Hacame is ranked 136th in 10000 Islands and 826th in the world for Most Influential, scoring 169 on the Soft Power Disbursement Rating.
