The Allied States of Green Hawk is a very large, safe nation, notable for its burgeoning Bird of Prey population. Its compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 120 million are ruled by a elected federal government made up of the President, Congress and the Court's System. All citizens can vote and all citizens share equal rights, but the government can use the Special Operations Police (SOP) at their will when deem that the people of Green Hawk are acting "badly."

The government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Healthcare, and Social Welfare. The average income tax rate is 42%, but much higher for the wealthy. A small private sector is dominated by the Retail industry.

Police officers are seen patrolling the streets armed with satellite-guided truncheons, referenda can be called for any law at the request of at least one third of the voting population, a government program is underway to revitalize Green Hawk's beaches, and the government pours millions of Wings into rehabilitation programs annually. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Green Hawk's national animal is the Bird of Prey, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Wing.

The Allied States of Green Hawk is part of the UFAN Alliance.
