The Matriarchy of Hacrela is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Svetlana with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate population of 2.241 billion Hacrelans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mervale. The average income tax rate is 89.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hacrelan economy, worth 349 trillion rupees a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 155,780 rupees, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Ice-filled coffins are ominously positioned in the corner of every hospital ward, sleep-deprived officials are known to collapse after late night revision for their examinations, it is a common belief that a sport isn't sport if there are no decapitations, and it is often said that only Svetlana could bring down Dàguó. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hacrela's national animal is the crocodile, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Imperial Cult.

Hacrela is ranked 7,987^th in the world and 188^th in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 454.73 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
