The Democratic Commonwealth of Ecclestia is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by President André Leversha with an even hand, and remarkable for its conspicuous electricity pylons, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 29.233 billion Ecclestians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The relatively small government prioritizes Education, although Healthcare, Environment, and Administration are also considered important, while Defense receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bermstad. The average income tax rate is 10.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ecclestian economy, worth a remarkable 7,601 trillion Francs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 260,039 Francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

Oil executives can be seen reluctantly cleaning oil-soaked birds, people talk about their libido as if it were an STD, all you have to do is pray to get into Ecclestia, and civil engineers are undermining sinkholes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Ecclestia's national animal is the Wallaby, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Christianity.

Ecclestia is ranked 1,243^rd in the world and 3^rd in Union of Christian Nations for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 9,479.39 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
