The Much Serene Commonwealth of Endrovia is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Lenard Bartholomew Endrovy with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 9.256 billion Endrovians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government is primarily concerned with Industry, with Welfare, Education, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Barthelmia. The average income tax rate is 69.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Endrovian economy, worth a remarkable 1,284 trillion ENTS a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 138,747 ENTS, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.1 times as much as the poorest.

Vegetables are crisper thanks to CRISPR, explicit slash fiction is repackaged for kindergarten kids as stories about friends cuddling friends, wind farms are erected on shuttered oil platforms, and government ministers have eclectic tastes in curtains. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Endrovia's national animal is the Octopus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Laïcité.

Endrovia is ranked 14,881^st in the world and 900^th in Lazarus for Highest Food Quality, scoring 135.53 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
