The Empire of Eponas Song is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its public floggings, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 1.128 billion Eponas Songians 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, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 47.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped Eponas Songian economy, worth 28.5 trillion rupees a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 25,285 rupees, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Classes are regularly interrupted by drunken children, students are wary of colorfully decorated new teachers with names like Professor Pipsqueak, referenda can be called for any law at the request of at least one third of the voting population, and politicians tend to speak more loudly and slowly these days. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eponas Song's national animal is the horse, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Eponas Song is ranked 121,835^th in the world and 27^th in Square Enix for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 620.56 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
