The Felinist Technate of Greater Eesti is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Rhinedottir with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, frequent executions, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 2.53 billion Estonians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The relatively small, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Irminsul. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Estonian economy, worth 323 trillion kroons a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 127,952 kroons, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,155,106 per year while the poor average 1,720, a ratio of 671 to 1.

The recently unemployed can often be seen at the local homeless shelter, being sent to collections is more dangerous than ever, government officials stay up all night in flame wars with their constituents, and when it comes to WMDs Greater Eesti has declared that the only winning move is not to play. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Greater Eesti's national animal is the wolf, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Greater Eesti is ranked 4,868th in the world and 19th in Europeia for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 117,972.24 Standard Monetary Units.
