The Holy Empire of Eastern Arba Fir is a colossal, genial nation, notable for its compulsory military service, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 4.598 billion Eastern Arba Firians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 56.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Eastern Arba Firian economy, worth 162 trillion baseballs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Arms Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 35,266 baseballs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Sex offenders find themselves cut off from the ability to repeat their crimes, it's considered a civil right to be allowed to neglect and mistreat your own children, the government officially wants you to slow down and speak more clearly, and military barracks resemble five-star hotels. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eastern Arba Fir's national animal is the Dog, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Eastern Arba Fir is ranked 297,940th in the world and 443rd in Starlight for Highest Disposable Incomes, with 15,517.48 Standard Monetary Units.
