The Federation of Eastern Eshonis is a tiny, orderly nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 9 million Eastern Eshonisians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 47.1%.

The Eastern Eshonisian economy, worth 393 billion Eshonisian rubles a year, is mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Automobile Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 43,736 Eshonisian rubles, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.8 times as much as the poorest.

Foreign musicians that Leader dislikes are turned away at the border, strange looking men with big red noses are found hiding behind bushes and inside dustbins, society and government have been organized according to a feudal hierarchy, and burial ceremonies have become as routinised as tax forms. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eastern Eshonis's national animal is the eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Eastern Eshonis is ranked 274,941^st in the world and 355^th in Edoca for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 23,136.38 Standard Monetary Units.
