The Corner of H-Zhena is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Dygonite with an even hand, and notable for its avant-garde cinema, complete lack of prisons, and daily referendums. The compassionate, humorless population of 14.49 billion H-Zhenans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The tiny government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Shu'ulathoi. The average income tax rate is 3.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient H-Zhenan economy, worth a remarkable 4,078 trillion scarabs a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 281,478 scarabs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The bonfire of the old paper records can be seen for miles around Shu'ulathoi, a niche industry catering to S&M enthusiasts has sprung up, election debates consists mostly of two grey suits arguing over how to best preserve the status quo, and the military refers to helpless combatants offering surrender as "sitting ducks". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. H-Zhena's national animal is the honey badger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

H-Zhena is ranked 15,421st in the world and 336th in The East Pacific for Nicest Citizens, with 24.99 average smiles per day.
