The Republic of Eistaria is a huge, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic population of 511 million Eistarians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 26.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Eistarian economy, worth 18.6 trillion baht a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Woodchip Exports, and Automobile Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 36,493 baht, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Beggars lack pockets for spare change, films are funded in accordance with the volume of tears shed when reading the screenplay, casino tax breaks are even bigger than their jackpots, and life expectancies inside correctional facilities vastly exceed the national average. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Eistaria's national animal is the leopard.

Eistaria is ranked 147,766^th in the world and 6,550^th in Balder for Most Beautiful Environments, with 516.05 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
