The Social-Imperial Federation of Alexandria-Hyperion is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Kaiser Alexander I of Saxe-Haalberg with an even hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, free-roaming dinosaurs, and soft-spoken computers. The compassionate population of 3.231 billion Hyperio are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Greater Starpiercer Metropolitan Area. The average income tax rate is 91.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hyperinese economy, worth 381 trillion Hyperinese Coppers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Cheese Exports. Average income is an impressive 118,126 Hyperinese Coppers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Agriculture is heavily subsidized by the government, finders keepers is the law of the land, dictators have dubbed Alexandria-Hyperion the land of lunatics, and the monarchy has returned to a simpler time when genitalia was the deciding factor of competence. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Alexandria-Hyperion's national animal is the Capybara, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Agnosticism.

Alexandria-Hyperion is ranked 46,201^st in the world and 25^th in Ensio for Highest Average Incomes, with 118,126.7 Standard Monetary Units.
