The Ocalian Kingdom of Eclaire is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Jonas Lilyan with a fair hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, unlimited-speed roads, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.51 billion Éclaireians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lilyhight. The average income tax rate is 55.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Éclairean economy, worth 206 trillion Éclairian Flowers a year, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Soda Sales, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 58,746 Éclairian Flowers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Sharks are enjoying their deliveries of canned food, a niche industry catering to S&M enthusiasts has sprung up, teachers are dying as they attempt to read 500 word essays without pausing for breath, and kindergartners' favourite dance move is the stop-drop-and-roll. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eclaire's national animal is the Éclarian Turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Lilyanism.
Eclaire is ranked 210,457th in the world and 20th in Ocala for Largest Black Market, with 384 billion Standard Monetary Units.
