The Commonwealth of United Counties of Escanaba is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by J R R Tolkien with a fair hand, and notable for its daily referendums, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 26.093 billion Escanabans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Great Bend. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 71.9%.

The frighteningly efficient United Counties of Escanaban economy, worth a remarkable 3,935 trillion Rois a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 150,826 Rois, with the richest citizens earning 5.9 times as much as the poorest.

The "temporary replacement bus service" is now a permanent fixture, eminent domain has been abolished, viewers get headaches from trying to read the screen full of small print warnings that precede most TV shows, and the nation's interest in space is at an all-time high while interest in saving the planet is at an all-time low. Crime is totally unknown. United Counties of Escanaba's national animal is the snowy owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

United Counties of Escanaba is ranked 51,936^th in the world and 4^th in Pogang for Lowest Crime Rates, with 73.73 law-abiding acts per hour.
