The Social Imperial State of Erindia is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Chanceler Edgar Allandir with an iron fist, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, compulsory military service, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful, devout population of 5.839 billion Erindians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Plakóspoli. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Erindian economy, worth a remarkable 1,162 trillion Ezins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 199,155 Ezins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's navy has been named the scourge of the seven thousand seas, war is more of a science than an art, exiles see that the line where the sky meets the sea is just clouds and rain, and the nation is in the international closet. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Erindia's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Erindia is ranked 4,154^th in the world and 3^rd in Arakeia for Most Developed, scoring 95.7 on the Human Development Index.
