The Kingdom of Esparant is a small, cultured nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, compulsory military service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 45 million Esparantishes 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 large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 43.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Esparantian economy, worth 1.54 trillion euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Furniture Restoration, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 34,238 euros, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Enemy navies sail within bombardment range of major coastal cities with impunity, election results are often delayed for weeks to count the expat votes, there's a mortuary next to every Esparantian restaurant, and political candidates who don't release their birth certificates are presumed to have been born in Maxtopia. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Esparant's national animal is the eagle, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Esparant is ranked 290,197^th in the world and 2,817^th in the Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -8.31 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
