The Brave New World of EldOradO2 is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Cyborg CEO Jack Johnson with an iron fist, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, free-roaming dinosaurs, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 12.743 billion Eldoradonians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Babylon. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 59.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Eldoradonian economy, worth a remarkable 4,691 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 368,127 Dollars, with the richest citizens earning 6.0 times as much as the poorest.

The value of the Dollar is directly tied to the strength of the previous hurricane season, whole-wheat loaves are sold under the counter in brown paper bags, Eldoradonian companies generally just fire employees in lieu of giving them vacation, and you need a signed affidavit from a registered psychiatrist to claim that you have crazy low prices. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. EldOradO2's national animal is the lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Catholicism.

EldOradO2 is ranked 7,777^th in the world and 3^rd in Squeaky Squeakers for Highest Poor Incomes, with 139,192.64 Standard Monetary Units.
