The Federation of Hildegane is a titanic, cultured nation, ruled by Konatsian Urabon with an even hand, and renowned for its feral children, complete lack of prisons, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 11.77 billion Hildogganni have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and look forward to their next free and open election, to be held on an as-yet unannounced date.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Janemba. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Hildegan economy, worth a remarkable 1,098 trillion ocarinas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Retail, Pizza Delivery, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is notable. Average income is 93,371 ocarinas, with the richest citizens earning 5.9 times as much as the poorest.

Leisure is a crime in ski towns, several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation, the government is on the side of working people (like CEOs, bankers and billionaires), and slavery has been abolished. Crime, especially youth-related, is pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Hildegane's national animal is the sand raccoon, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Violent Nihilism.

Hildegane is ranked 71,336^th in the world and 16^th in The Eternal Order for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 134.75 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
