The Dominion of EIC-1 is a gargantuan, cultured nation, notable for its ban on automobiles, avant-garde cinema, and ritual sacrifices. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 16.947 billion EIC-1ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The medium-sized, socially-minded government prioritizes Defense, although Healthcare, Law & Order, and Education are also considered important. The average income tax rate is 35.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped EIC-1ian economy, worth 639 trillion $$s a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 37,759 $$s, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Snitches get riches, children's books regularly feature formerly distressed damsels suing their princes, immigrants are required to salute the flag five times a day, and daisy chain gangs plant flowers and pick up litter. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. EIC-1's national animal is the Laughing swordfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

EIC-1 is ranked 261,308^th in the world and 2^nd in East India Company for Safest, scoring 15.47 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
