The Commonwealth of Heliosha is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Telma Alfred with an even hand, and remarkable for its frequent executions, keen interest in outer space, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate population of 4.403 billion Helioshans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Zeyrough. The average income tax rate is 42.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Helioshan economy, worth 323 trillion Dollars a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Book Publishing, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 73,428 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Going on a diet invalidates your passport, the nation's laws on image rights are amongst the strictest in the world, contemporary art museums showcase the latest in centuries-old art, and biotech companies are fined if their jumbled genetic sequences look too familiar. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Heliosha's national animal is the Griffin, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Heliosha is ranked 89,407^th in the world and 1,240^th in The North Pacific for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 3,096.81 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
