The Entroterranean Colony of Nether Entroterraneo is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its frequent executions, digital currency, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 6.77 billion Entroterranean Settlers are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rubrum. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 10.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Entroterranean settler economy, worth 637 trillion Entroterranean Lire a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Gambling. Average income is 94,099 Entroterranean Lire, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 664,056 per year while the poor average 4,494, a ratio of 147 to 1.

The only thing that can pin down a "superhero" is red tape, schoolchildren learn basic numeracy by counting off their push-ups, owners of man-portable particle accelerator backpacks are advised not to cross the streams, and hipster cyclists declare that "metal is dead". Crime is moderate. Nether Entroterraneo's national animal is the cerberus, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
