The Eternal Misfortune of Heliosphere is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Leader with an iron fist, and remarkable for its unlimited-speed roads, state-planned economy, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, humorless population of 19.36 billion Heliospherans 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 Education, although Environment, Industry, and Administration are also considered important, while Spirituality and Defense are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Heliosphere City. The income tax rate is 100%.
The frighteningly efficient Heliospheran economy, worth an astonishing 15,046 trillion Novas 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 an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Information Technology and Cheese Exports. 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 a breathtaking 777,172 Novas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Citizens select which government department gets their income tax Novas each year, it's best to decline if Leader offers to buy a round of drinks, criminals and college students are taking an interest in the government's new weed-killing program, and trespassers entering Leader's office are immediately vaporized. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Heliosphere's national animal is the Meteor, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Atheism.
Heliosphere is ranked 277,101st in the world and 31st in Pencil Sharpeners Puppet Storage for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -5.37 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
