The Garrison of The 80th Ecalpan Dragoons is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, otherworldly petting zoo, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 2.294 billion Ecalpans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Industry, and Education also on the agenda, while Social Policy and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fort Lexington. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Ecalpan economy, worth 365 trillion kobans a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 159,285 kobans, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 757,550 per year while the poor average 19,723, a ratio of 38.4 to 1.

Children are terrified that the 'flying police monster' will come to take them away in the night, Leader's power is effectively nullified as no bill becomes law without the upper house's support, the nation's prisons are touted as the best weight loss programs money can't buy, and many believe that Leader's head is big enough for the sun to orbit around it. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The 80th Ecalpan Dragoons's national animal is the kirin, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

The 80th Ecalpan Dragoons is ranked 284,233^rd in the world and 1,345^th in the Plains of Perdition for Highest Average Tax Rates, with 9.84 Effective Tax Rate.
