The Kingdom of Ejorike is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by King Maxim III with an iron fist, and remarkable for its enslaved workforce, infamous sell-swords, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 13.721 billion Ejorikeans are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The tiny, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry, Spirituality, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Welfare and Environment receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Great Royal Palace Garden. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.1%.
The frighteningly efficient Ejorikean economy, worth a remarkable 5,858 trillion silver sonns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Gambling. Average income is an amazing 426,947 silver sonns, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 3,996,007 per year while the poor average 3,878, a ratio of 1,030 to 1.
Roosters that herald the rising sun are immediately sent to the slaughterhouse, old folks reminisce about the last time someone was acquitted of a crime, farm turkeys are given high doses of antidepressants to take their minds off the holiday season, and artists regularly face criminal charges and art-burning parties are common. Crime is pervasive, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Ejorike's national animal is the lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Christianity.
Ejorike is ranked 634th in the world and 1st in Krillin for Largest Furniture Restoration Industry, scoring 18,086.58 on the Spitz-Pollish Productivity Index.
