The SEGA Republic of Sonic The Hedgehogs is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 1.012 billion 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defence, and Commerce. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 68%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Automobile Manufacturing industry.

Protests are legal but strictly supervised, the nation is experiencing a severe shortage of sporting events, the Sonic The Hedgehogs Automotive Racing Series draws millions of spectators annually while those near the tracks complain about the noise, and abortion is only legal in unusual circumstances. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is well under control, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Sonic The Hedgehogs's national animal is the Dark Hedgehog, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its currency is the Gold Ring.
