The Promised Land of Earthend is a colossal, cultured nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.108 billion Earthendians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Patapole. The average income tax rate is 83.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Earthendian economy, worth 266 trillion Ka-Chings 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 Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 85,756 Ka-Chings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Gift baskets often contain working nukes, citizens who want to celebrate the holidays generally deck the halls with old newspaper trimmings and dirty socks, the national guard is mobilized whenever a mother gets separated from her child at the mall, and advert breaks are played at lower volumes to make them easier to ignore. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Earthend's national animal is the Dettankarmen, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Earthend is ranked 119,157^th in the world and 36^th in RPS for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 650.21 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
