The Commonwealth of Eurokom is a very large, orderly nation, renowned for its pith helmet sales, digital currency, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cynical population of 188 million Europeans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 74.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Eurokom economy, worth 6.82 trillion euromarks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. Average income is 36,279 euromarks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Saying 'Hi Guys' to a mixed gender group of people at work is a fireable offense, guide dogs for the blind have been seen using government websites, wigged-out hunters report playing croquet with the Queen of Hearts, and it is believed that belligerence is a passing phase foreign leaders will soon outgrow. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eurokom's national animal is the Falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Eurokom is ranked 164,675^th in the world and 3,572^nd in the South Pacific for Most Stationary, with 40.87321689668 days.
