The Nationalist Republic of 3 Islands Of The East Pacific is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Sebastian Cao with an iron fist, and remarkable for its frequent executions, punitive income tax rates, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.871 billion East pacificians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cao. The average income tax rate is 53.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving East pacifician economy, worth 180 trillion Holographic Cryptocurrencies a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Book Publishing, Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 96,504 Holographic Cryptocurrencies, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

Endangered species are effective hostages against the East pacifician military, golden statues of cockroaches line the memorial avenues of the Funerary District, half-submerged and flooded seaside hotels are technically still next to the beach, and it is illegal to distribute Girl Guide Cookies without an advanced food hygiene diploma. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. 3 Islands Of The East Pacific's national animal is the cockroach, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Caoism.

3 Islands Of The East Pacific is ranked 36,156^th in the world and 58^th in Lands End for Healthiest Citizens, with 7.21 bananas ingested per day.
