The Commonwealth of Eclipseland is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by The Supreme Council of Eclipseland with a fair hand, and notable for its daily referendums, ubiquitous missile silos, and irreverence towards religion. The democratic population of 1.933 billion Eclipselandians 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 medium-sized government prioritizes Administration, with Defense, Education, and Industry also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Carbondale. The average income tax rate is 33.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Eclipselandian economy, worth 174 trillion Coronas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Trout Farming, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 90,338 Coronas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Small patches of desolate land across the world are part of Eclipselandian sovereign territory, criminals lock themselves in their mums' basements to avoid prison, a video of The Supreme Council of Eclipseland wearing shock-blue face paint and smashing an electric guitar in front of a frenzied crowd is on endless repeat on the nightly news, and courses in how to boil water are popular for formerly microwave-reliant Eclipselandians. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eclipseland's national animal is the Owl, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Eclipseworship.

Eclipseland is ranked 111,646th in the world and 866th in the West Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 16.36 flags saluted per person per day.
