Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Holy Empire of Eoghania is a massive, safe nation, ruled by King Euan with an iron fist, and remarkable for its complete absence of social welfare. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 4.281 billion are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Defence, Law & Order, and Religion & Spirituality. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Rehiderah. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 69%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry.

Citizens must pay to enjoy Eoghania's pristine beaches, military spending recently hit a new high, thousands of former welfare recipients are in a revolutionary uproar as the rest of society is enjoying a hefty tax break, and billions of Eoghanian Credits are being blown on orbital weapons development. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is relatively low, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. Eoghania's national animal is the Smaragdusian Cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, its national religion is Euanian, and its currency is the Eoghanian Credit.

Eoghania is ranked 4,853rd in the West Pacific and 126,227th in the world for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -45 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
