The United Empire of Eritei is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Empress Rose Tir-Zaccaria I with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, daily referendums, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.688 billion Eriteians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Milona. The average income tax rate is 65.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Eriteian economy, worth 381 trillion Hare Imperituses a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 103,359 Hare Imperituses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

High school boys are required to pass vigorous self-mastery and sensitivity training to graduate, the examiners who examine examiners are being examined by examiners, East Lebatuckese astronauts' favorite game during downtime on the Multinational Space Station is 'I Spy', and the navy is chrome-plating its battleships to prevent rust. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eritei's national animal is the Northern Mountain Wolf, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Roman Catholic.

Eritei is ranked 106,689^th in the world and 639^th in Europe for Largest Basket Weaving Sector, scoring 1,420.43 on the Hickory Productivity Index.
