The United Federal Empire of Eshington is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Prime Minister Thomas Mathew with an even hand, and notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, smutty television, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 4.301 billion Eshingtonians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Olisford. The average income tax rate is 87.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Eshingtonian economy, worth 917 trillion Roses a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Tourism. Average income is an amazing 213,367 Roses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Pop sensation "Jack and the Holograms" is storming the charts, umbrellas are back in fashion, the government is spending millions on renovating the public transportation system, and sausages are seldom seen in the supermarket. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Eshington's national animal is the Eagle, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Meliorism.
Eshington is ranked 10,439th in the world and 4th in NATO 2022 for Most Patriotic, with 62.79 flags saluted per person per day.
