The United Federation of Etheinia is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Kurt Weigand with an iron fist, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, keen interest in outer space, and strictly enforced bedtime. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 12.978 billion Etheinians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."
The large, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Alestin. The average income tax rate is 78.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Etheinian economy, worth a remarkable 1,682 trillion ENCUS a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is extensive. Average income is an impressive 129,610 ENCUS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Half-submerged and flooded seaside hotels are technically still next to the beach, kids only know what plants are because they've seen them on the television, the citizenship exam requires years of study to actually pass, and it's illegal to blow things up. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Etheinia's national animal is the Eurasian Eagle-Owl, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Various.
Etheinia is ranked 4,655th in the world and 3rd in Coalition of Crown Albatross for Largest Automobile Manufacturing Sector, scoring 8,598.41 on the Henry Ford Productivity Index.
