Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Empire of Eranwez is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its compulsory military service. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 4.9 billion enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Social Welfare, although Defence and Law & Order are secondary priorities. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 55%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing industries.

Crime -- especially youth-related -- is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eranwez's national animal is the Persian cat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the Denar.

Eranwez is ranked 3rd in Greece and 16,365th in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 3 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
