The Republic of Eastern Winesian is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its digital currency, pith helmet sales, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate population of 1.24 billion Eastern Winesianians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. The average income tax rate is 84.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Eastern Winesianian economy, worth 164 trillion marks a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 132,379 marks, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Hundreds of subterranean tunnels are being built as part of "Project Morlock", Eastern Winesianians are regularly fired for looking at MyFace during their lunch breaks, prolonged government investigations are a common revenge tactic among spurned significant others, and the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eastern Winesian's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Eastern Winesian is ranked 190,855^th in the world and 5,054^th in The North Pacific for Largest Black Market, with 31.5 billion Standard Monetary Units.
