The Incorporated States of Hyperbanus is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Albion Constantine with an even hand, and renowned for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 1.974 billion Hyperbanusians 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.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hydrotermopolis. The average income tax rate is 68.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hyperbanusian economy, worth 257 trillion E-Coins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 130,275 E-Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

News headlines usually include p-values, the nation has opened its arms to an influx of refugees, books are so highly regarded in Hyperbanus that libraries are often revered as holy shrines, and group hugs break out during floor votes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hyperbanus's national animal is the Bulky Golden Dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Hyperbanus is ranked 167,925^th in the world and 9,279^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring -5.48 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
