The Republic of Eiran is a gargantuan, cultured nation, renowned for its pith helmet sales, daily referendums, and ubiquitous missile silos. The democratic, devout population of 11.029 billion Eiranians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Erendee - Ioirain Dibh. The average income tax rate is 73.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Eiranian economy, worth a remarkable 1,064 trillion Eireann Pounds a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 96,518 Eireann Pounds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Survivors of attempted maternal infanticide are sentenced to live with their mothers forever, search and rescue forces now accept cheques and all major credit cards, urbanites battle to the death for penthouse apartments, and declaring that "some kids are just born evil" is not endearing Leader to progressive thinkers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eiran's national animal is the Black'ed Sheep, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Christianity.
