The Constitutional Monarchy of Eichenbund is a large, safe nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, suspicion of poets, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 137 million Eichenbundners are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 18.9%.

The very strong Eichenbundian economy, worth 7.53 trillion Thalers a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Gambling, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 54,945 Thalers, with the richest citizens earning 9.3 times as much as the poorest.

Scaffolding is built around scaffolding to give safe access, children as young as eight can present logical proofs for the existence of the afterlife, the consent form for routine blood pressure measurement has been nominated for the 'Novel Of The Year' award, and naturists are jailed regularly for indecent exposure. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eichenbund's national animal is the Wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Eichenbund is ranked 296,405^th in the world and 123^rd in KAISERREICH for Largest Populations, with 137 million capita.
