The Star Empire of Huerdae is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Emperor Niko'Dohsa with an iron fist, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, frequent executions, and public floggings. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 29.387 billion Huerdaen are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The tiny, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Helsearc. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Huerdaen economy, worth a remarkable 9,364 trillion Huerdaen Ingots a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 318,668 Huerdaen Ingots, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Hundreds of subterranean tunnels are being built as part of "Project Morlock", political talk shows often have children as guests whenever they need commentary on world religions, warfare increasingly resembles a video game, and preschoolers practice disarming active shooters before naptime. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Huerdae's national animal is the Hercules Beetle, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Spirit of Man.

Huerdae is ranked 722^nd in the world and 1^st in Limitless Universe for Highest Poor Incomes, with 267,934.93 Standard Monetary Units.
