The Kingdom of Hellenicum is a tiny, genial nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service and punitive income tax rates. The hard-working, cynical, devout population of 10 million Hellenicumians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 51.0%.

The Hellenicumian economy, worth 429 billion Phoenixes a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Basket Weaving, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 42,920 Phoenixes, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

Organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, vaccinations are mandatory, surveillance cameras are banned, and genetic researchers have been expelled. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hellenicum's national animal is the Eagle.

Hellenicum is ranked 227,952nd in the world and 397th in Aeternum for Highest Average Incomes, with 42,920.35 Standard Monetary Units.
