The Community of Eureka Oregon is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Henry Deacon with a fair hand, and renowned for its digital currency, frequent executions, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-working, democratic population of 11.524 billion Eurekans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.
The medium-sized, outspoken government prioritizes Education, with Industry, Welfare, and Defense also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Global Dynamics. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 36.0%.
The frighteningly efficient Eurekan economy, worth a remarkable 1,362 trillion cryptoes a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Soda Sales. Average income is an impressive 118,228 cryptoes, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 390,271 per year while the poor average 26,795, a ratio of 14.6 to 1.
The police double as repo men, annulments are on the rise as couples discover their ancestors were born in the same hospitals, Eureka Oregon is notorious for its citizens' infidelity, and citizens living in underground cities have developed a healthy green glow. Crime is totally unknown. Eureka Oregon's national animal is the robot dog, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Eureka Oregon is ranked 17,756th in the world and 4th in Union of Allied Planets for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 299.61 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
