The Colony of Shadow Eagles is a titanic, safe nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 22.441 billion Shadow Eaglesians 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 enormous, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 60.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but stagnant Shadow Eaglesian economy, worth 59.0 trillion Guanos a year, is highly specialized and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Basket Weaving, and Automobile Manufacturing. Black market activity is frequent. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 2,627 Guanos, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Voting is voluntary and Eagles are considered a delicacy. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Shadow Eagles's national animal is the Eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Shadow Eagles is ranked 31,188^th in the world and 414^th in eta for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring zero on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
