The Democratic Republic of Ereena is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by President Steven Dyer with a fair hand, and remarkable for its otherworldly petting zoo, public floggings, and daily referendums. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 2.383 billion Ereeni 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 large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Neo Chulmina. The average income tax rate is 67.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ereenian economy, worth 246 trillion Eers a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 103,381 Eers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bus ads propagandize causes ranging from sexual revolution to religious pogroms, a common response to government PSAs is "well, DUH, obviously", atheists on vacation find Serkonism's scriptures make useful doorstops, and wildlife have trouble navigating the electric fences surrounding national forests. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ereena's national animal is the Ereenian Antelope, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Serkonism.

Ereena is ranked 197,394^th in the world and 8,629^th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -7.24 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
