The United Communes of Eurocom is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Leader with a fair hand, and remarkable for its multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, pith helmet sales, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 3.073 billion Eurocoms are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Paris. The average income tax rate is 98.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Eurocom economy, worth 597 trillion Euros a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 194,415 Euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Human tissue is grown in vats as a delicacy as well as for transplants, offering a builder a cup of tea is a legal minefield, family isn't who you're born with but who you abandon in foreign countries, and roosters that herald the rising sun are immediately sent to the slaughterhouse. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eurocom's national animal is the Hawk, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Secularism.

Eurocom is ranked 4,208^th in the world and 216^th in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 607.18 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
