The Dominion of Eclipsus is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Governess Ravencroft with an iron fist, and renowned for its free-roaming dinosaurs, parental licensing program, and pith helmet sales. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 2.518 billion Eclipsians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eclipso. The average income tax rate is 77.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Eclipsian economy, worth 475 trillion Yuls a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 188,884 Yuls, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.6 times as much as the poorest.

The nation frequently puts profits over peace, breast milk is being redistributed from each according to their ability to each according to their need, every product goes through extensive safety-testing by the government, and basic multiplication is all you need to know to have a child. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eclipsus's national animal is the Raven, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Atheism.

Eclipsus is ranked 316,673^rd in the world and 1^st in Eclipsa for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 21.37 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
