The Hegendstaat of Eraver is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Xerxes of Barentham with an even hand, and remarkable for its absence of drug laws, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 17.328 billion Eraverians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fordmort. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Eraverian economy, worth a remarkable 9,397 trillion Supercoins a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is a breathtaking 542,343 Supercoins, with the richest citizens earning 7.1 times as much as the poorest.

Foreigners can tell the popularity of Eraverian landmarks by the size of their ash dunes, most of the military's funding goes into researching space-age weaponry, the government is said to have a martyrdom complex, and juvenile delinquents are fitter than ever. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eraver's national animal is the Springbok, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Eraver is ranked 34,283^rd in the world and 326^th in The North Pacific for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring 19,606.44 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
