The Commonwealth of Eastern Orient is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Arch Chancellor Keo with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, digital currency, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate population of 2.909 billion Orients enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Teito. The average income tax rate is 84.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Orientian economy, worth 518 trillion Tennouens a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 178,075 Tennouens, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.

Scientists regularly clone human beings for research purposes, collisions between bicycles and carnival floats are on the rise, the big red machine has ground to a halt, and the nation excels at displacement. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eastern Orient's national animal is the Imperial Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Eastern Orient is ranked 8,009^th in the world and 504^th in Balder for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 5,108.59 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
