The National Republic of Eraver is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Thomas Parry with a fair hand, and renowned for its unlimited-speed roads, complete lack of prisons, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 1.423 billion Eraverians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Frauport. The average income tax rate is 73.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Eraverian economy, worth 230 trillion Eraverian Soubles a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 161,936 Eraverian Soubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Census workers struggle to account for the rapidly increasing number of citizens to tabulate, the fire protection service is wholly government-funded, multiple births are a cause of celebration for tax collectors, and citizens are permitted to carry concealed handguns. Crime is totally unknown. Eraver's national animal is the Eraverian Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Christianity.

Eraver is ranked 165,114^th in the world and 8,709^th in The North Pacific for Most Secular, with 8.33 Atheism Rate.
