The Democratic Space Republic of Eastern Doncaster is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Cletus McYeetus with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, ubiquitous missile silos, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.302 billion Doncasterians 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Colonia. The average income tax rate is 80.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Eastern Doncasterian economy, worth 568 trillion Credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 132,144 Credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Primetime re-runs of The Black and White Minstrel Show are a critical hit, the national security service are a bunch of crooks, workers can choose whether they prefer offices that smell of pungent body odor or whale vomit, and toy versions of heroin paraphernalia let kids pretend to be their favourite TV characters. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eastern Doncaster's national animal is the Goat, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Eastern Doncaster is ranked 15,901^st in the world and 457^th in the South Pacific for Highest Food Quality, scoring 131.45 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
