The Kingdom of Eclaire is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Jonas Lilyan with a fair hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, unlimited-speed roads, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 2.057 billion Éclaireians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Lilyhight. The average income tax rate is 35.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Éclairean economy, worth 126 trillion Éclairian Flowers a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Automobile Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 61,364 Éclairian Flowers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cases of disease among the civilian population dwindle as civilian population dwindles, promising seven years of bad luck leads to seven years of community service, the importance of winning Olympic gold medals is indoctrinated from an early age, and the arms industry is strictly regulated. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eclaire's national animal is the Éclarian Turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Lilyanism.

Eclaire is ranked 130,410^th in the world and 41^st in Ocala for Highest Food Quality, scoring 17.92 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
