The State of Erde Terre is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by the Governor with an iron fist, and renowned for its irreverence towards religion, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 34.222 billion Erde Terreans are rabid consumers, partly through choice and partly because the government tells them to and dissenters tend to vanish from their homes at night.

The relatively small, pro-business government prioritizes Law & Order, although Education and Industry are also considered important, while Welfare and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.2%.

The very strong Erde Terrean economy, worth a remarkable 1,328 trillion betales a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Basket Weaving, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 38,808 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 263,847 per year while the poor average 2,085, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Any body part that can be cut off a person is no longer considered to be their property, there's nothing more gay than bleeding for your nation, the government's official stance on religion is that it is so very silly, and The Governor has just been declared ruler of Erde Terre in an international press conference. Crime is a serious problem. Erde Terre's national animal is the deer.

Erde Terre is ranked 129,289^th in the world and 1^st in Federated States of Micronesia for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,261.81 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
