The Crown Princedom of Hessinau is a huge, efficient nation, notable for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and national health service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 669 million Hessinats are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, corrupt, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nový Reichenau. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 14.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Hessinian economy, worth 79.2 trillion Hessinian Korunas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Trout Farming. Average income is an impressive 118,431 Hessinian Korunas, with the richest citizens earning 7.1 times as much as the poorest.

The price of takeaway food quadruples after 6pm, you can call your arthritic immigrant neighbour for all your roof-tiling and guttering needs, t-shirts displaying a photo of Leader performing the Full-Monty are selling out, and unpackaged foodstuffs rot on store shelves. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Hessinau's national animal is the Crowned Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Hessinau is ranked 3,895^th in the world and 286^th in Europe for Most Influential, scoring 25,964 on the Soft Power Disbursement Rating.
