The Republic of Hec is a massive, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its burgeoning eagle population. The quiet, industrious population of 2.891 billion Hecians 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 medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 23.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Hecian economy, worth 99.6 trillion baht a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 34,440 baht, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hec's national animal is the eagle.

Hec is ranked 189,310^th in the world and 14^th in Guinea Kiribati for Lowest Crime Rates, with 57.65 law-abiding acts per hour.
