The Most Serene Republic of East Endia is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, soft-spoken computers, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 690 million East Endians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Solarien. The average income tax rate is 87.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient East Endian economy, worth 73.5 trillion standards a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 106,542 standards, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Pre-takeoff checks last longer than the flights themselves, the Violetist community celebrates bombshells being dropped on East Endia, annual Formula One races bring the capital to a screeching halt, and visiting dignitaries often end up cuddling in the hot tub with Leader. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. East Endia's national animal is the squirrel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

East Endia is ranked 6,608^th in the world and 198^th in the South Pacific for Safest, scoring 126.84 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
