The Disputed Territories of Ear is a mammoth, pleasant nation, notable for its burgeoning Kitsune population. The hard-working population of 5.235 billion Earians 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 government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 22.6%.

The Earian economy, worth 209 trillion Delta Eagles a year, is quite specialized and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Gambling, Trout Farming, and Tourism. Average income is 40,008 Delta Eagles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ear's national animal is the Kitsune.

Ear is ranked 304,138^th in the world and 4^th in Gwelchbodia for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -50.99 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
