The Republic of Land of The Eastern Sun is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Anas with an even hand, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, ban on automobiles, and zero percent divorce rate. The compassionate, devout population of 4.975 billion Eastern Sunians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Corneira. The average income tax rate is 76.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Land of The Eastern Sunian economy, worth 498 trillion Dollars a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 100,166 Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

People say that cubists are rubbish because they can't draw faces, the nationalised Arms Manufacturing Industry is not interested in making weapons, sleep-deprived officials are known to collapse after late night revision for their examinations, and the nation's most "productive" diamond mine hasn't been operational for seven months. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Land of The Eastern Sun's national animal is the Emu, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Land of The Eastern Sun is ranked 19,957th in the world and 1,229th in Lazarus for Highest Food Quality, scoring 117.23 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
