The United Socialist States of Entrop is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, punitive income tax rates, and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, democratic population of 583 million Entropi 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Warringham. The average income tax rate is 74.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Entrop economy, worth 1.84 trillion finns a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, highly specialized black market in Cheese Exports, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Information Technology, and Woodchip Exports. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 3,160 finns, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sex changes are routinely performed at Entrop's hospitals, Entrop has designated Warringham as its capital city, soup kitchens are the only things doing roaring business, and same-sex marriages are increasingly common. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Entrop's national animal is the dolphin.

Entrop is ranked 55,422^nd in the world and 15^th in Esportiva for Highest Drug Use, scoring 92.6 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
