The Indomitable Island Bastion of Escalan Corps-Star Island is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Executive Officer Lanáltiran Enguerrade with a fair hand, and renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 2.241 billion live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, liberal, pro-business government stops and the rest of society begins, but it concentrates mainly on Commerce, although Education and Defence are secondary priorities. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Teniana. The average income tax rate is 66%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Tourism, Automobile Manufacturing, and Book Publishing industries.

Unstable couples are known to break up over which one gets parental leave, anti-government web sites are springing up, the government covers the basic health care of its citizens, and the mining industry is making inroads into environmentally sensitive areas. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is crippling, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. Escalan Corps-Star Island's national animal is the wyralkin, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is Aláranid Deism, and its currency is the decunia.

Escalan Corps-Star Island is ranked 21st in Alaran peri quan preciad and 128,324th in the world for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring -86 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
