The Heroism of The Hero is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by the Hero with an even hand, and remarkable for its ban on automobiles, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, devout population of 1.869 billion Heroans are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Admin-1. The average income tax rate is 66.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Heroan economy, worth 60.1 trillion Feedoms a year, is highly specialized and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 32,143 Feedoms, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Conversion therapy coupons are a popular present for coming of age ceremonies, photos of picturesque coastal buildings are set against a backdrop of smokestacks and ship hulls, diplomatic missions typically end with a flurry of childish insults, accusations and phlegm, and the wearing and manufacture of fur apparel is banned. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. The Hero's national animal is the Unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Hero is ranked 242,211^th in the world and 4,791^st in Artificial Solar System for Smartest Citizens, with 2.65 quips per hour.
