The Star Trek TOS Movie Enjoyer of Eripolis is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by James T Kirk with a fair hand, and notable for its daily referendums, irreverence towards religion, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 11.122 billion Eripolisians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of the USS Enterprise-A. The average income tax rate is 50.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Eripolisian economy, worth a remarkable 1,198 trillion Eripolisian Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 107,801 Eripolisian Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Veteran cops reminisce over their heavy armor days, James T Kirk has just been declared ruler of Eripolis in an international press conference, the nation's politicians are known more for the internet memes they spawn than any of their accomplishments, and giant no-kill traps baited with Bapst Red Ribbon and vintage bicycles have been popping up in back alleys nationwide. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eripolis's national animal is the Tandy TRS-80, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Eripolis is ranked 30,001st in the world and 1st in 1980s America for Most Cultured, scoring 80 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
