The Republic of Ekoba is a massive, pleasant nation, renowned for its burgeoning bovina population. The hard-working population of 1.546 billion Ekobans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 20.7%.

The Ekoban economy, worth 65.1 trillion aurums a year, is quite specialized and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Retail, Soda Sales, and Book Publishing. Average income is 42,092 aurums, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

The alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit. Crime is moderate. Ekoba's national animal is the bovina.

Ekoba is ranked 179,048^th in the world and 4^th in Doha for Safest, scoring 55.25 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
