The Imperial Commonwealth of Eastfield Lodge is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by King Iqbal II with an even hand, and notable for its digital currency, strictly enforced bedtime, and ban on automobiles. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 30.693 billion Eastfielders are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lodgertia. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Eastfielder economy, worth an astonishing 11,530 trillion Fishfingers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry. Average income is an amazing 375,672 Fishfingers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Modelling agencies send their clients to work in nursing homes, schools have extensive counseling programs for troubled students, Eastfielder royals love to remind their siblings who was adopted first, and criminals are really screwed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eastfield Lodge's national animal is the digitalis-tailed lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Islam.

Eastfield Lodge is ranked 263,967^th in the world and 98^th in Rushmore for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -85.08 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
