The State of Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever is a colossal, orderly nation, remarkable for its complete lack of prisons and complete lack of public education. The hard-working, cynical population of 9.567 billion Ebola Hemorrhagic Feverians enjoy great individual freedoms in everything except elections, which, where they exist at all, are populist shams for a dictatorship government that has no intention of ever giving up power.

The minute, liberal, well-organized government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Welfare, although Industry and Healthcare are also considered important, while Defense and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.1%.

The thriving Ebola Hemorrhagic Feverian economy, worth 323 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Basket Weaving, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 33,833 betales, with the richest citizens earning 8.9 times as much as the poorest.

Elections have been outlawed, a well-funded social safety net protects the unfortunate, military funding has been stripped back, and Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever's national animal is the deer, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever is ranked 125,662^nd in the world and 360^th in Ancient Lands for Highest Food Quality, scoring 18.64 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
