The Dictatorship of Hedonians is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Supreme Leader Kile with an iron fist, and renowned for its digital currency, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 7.522 billion Hedonians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Law & Order, Administration, and Education are also considered important. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hedonopolis. The average income tax rate is 94.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Hedoniansian economy, worth a remarkable 1,369 trillion Heds a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 182,051 Heds, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Everyone has the equal opportunity to have their wallet stolen, the phrase 'spreading like wildfire' is no longer in the public lexicon, unpopular cops are fired at a moment's notice by the citizens they police, and people stand their fridges back-to-front to benefit from the free heating. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hedonians's national animal is the Three headed serpent, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Hedonians is ranked 216,043rd in the world and 1st in Alijin mezar for Most Stationary, with 32.3936598236 days.
