The People's Republic of E002 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, ban on automobiles, and smutty television. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.239 billion E002ians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The large, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of E002 City. The average income tax rate is 73.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming E002ian economy, worth 786 trillion dollars a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 108,586 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Government officials say that if you close your eyes and wish really hard the budget deficit will go away, residents of houses built on a foundation of wishful thinking are prone to an odd sinking feeling, lawyers spend as much time preparing their make-up as they do their briefs, and evasive politicians don't fail to strongly commit to not committing to a course of non-inaction. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. E002's national animal is the Kiwi, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

E002 is ranked 147,622^nd in the world and 5,410^th in Osiris for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 776.46 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
