The Sultanate of Hejerzan is a tiny, safe nation, notable for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The cynical population of 7 million Hejerzanians 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 enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Law & Order, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 72.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The basket case Hejerzanian economy, worth 45.5 billion State Rubies a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism. Average income is 6,497 State Rubies, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hejerzan's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Hejerzan is ranked 306,117^th in the world and 416^th in Edoca for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -51.96 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
