The Socialist Monarchy of Hexion is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Simon Delaware with a fair hand, and notable for its smutty television, pith helmet sales, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 1.029 billion Hexionians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dustbowl. The average income tax rate is 47.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Hexionian economy, worth 93.0 trillion Coins a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 90,355 Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

One does not simply walk into the tundra, police struggle to solve crimes due to the lack of fingerprint records, citizens living in underground cities have developed a healthy green glow, and a bureaucratic fight over HIA cafeteria food expenditures has caused the temporary suspension of all agency counterintelligence operations. Crime is totally unknown. Hexion's national animal is the Owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Perfectionism.

Hexion is ranked 147,122^nd in the world and 1,874^th in the West Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 496.13 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
