The United States of Escalver is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Prime Minister Sasha Everett with an even hand, and renowned for its daily referendums, ban on automobiles, and irreverence towards religion.

The frighteningly efficient Escalvian economy, worth 415 trillion Peecs a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Tourism. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 121,994 Peecs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.7 times as much as the poorest.

Millions of Escalverian are excellent swimmers, wildlife have trouble navigating the electric fences surrounding national forests, the government seeks peaceful forum with terrorists, and bored politicians often entertain themselves with games of Simon during important votes. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Escalver's national animal is the Red Panda, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Agnosticism.
