The Republic of Eothed is a colossal, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 5.46 billion Eothedians enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.

The tiny, liberal, pro-business, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Law & Order, with Defense, Industry, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.0%.

The thriving Eothedian economy, worth 362 trillion rubledollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is fairly diversified and led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Pizza Delivery, Cheese Exports, and Soda Sales. Average income is 66,472 rubledollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 235,292 per year while the poor average 13,559, a ratio of 17.4 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Eothed's national animal is the hawk, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Eothed is ranked 159,007^th in the world and 3,350^th in Suspicious for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 485.59 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
