The Republic of Taleire is a very large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and absence of drug laws. The hard-working, democratic, devout population of 439 million Eirén hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Auctor. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 12.3%.

The strong Eirén economy, worth 27.2 trillion Zaliors a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Pizza Delivery, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 61,881 Zaliors, with the richest citizens earning 7.5 times as much as the poorest.

Organ donation is compulsory, Taleire has designated Auctor as its capital city, the tenet of free speech is held dear, and older citizens lament over the loss of law and order. Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Taleire's national animal is the Phoenix, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

Taleire is ranked 267,911^th in the world and 104^th in Aeternas for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 639.04 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
