The Open Principality of Eco-Paris Reformation is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Prince Jack Mirabilis with a fair hand, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 8.164 billion Phillonians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Antipodes. The income tax rate is 100.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Phillonian economy, worth a remarkable 1,608 trillion URCS a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Tourism and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 196,970 URCS, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Dinner parties often end in politically charged fist fights, the comic book series 'Prince Jack Mirabilis and the Villainous Corporate Cronies' is a best-seller, a vast monorail network carries people all over the country, and Prince Jack Mirabilis has been nicknamed 'Robomop'. Crime is totally unknown. Eco-Paris Reformation's national animal is the Puffin, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Scientology.

Eco-Paris Reformation is ranked 23,352^nd in the world and 14^th in Union of Allied States for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 256.54 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
