The Republic of Ecterria is a mammoth, pleasant nation, notable for its burgeoning Kitsune population. The hard-working population of 8.566 billion Ecterrians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 16.3%.

The Ecterrian economy, worth 397 trillion Delta Eagles a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Information Technology, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 46,402 Delta Eagles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ecterria's national animal is the Kitsune, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Ecterria is ranked 81,779^th in the world and 4^th in Sus amoungus for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring zero on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
