The Third Empire of Eritria is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Prime Minister Panagiotis Palaiologos with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, frequent executions, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 8.149 billion Eritrians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Neae Athenae. The average income tax rate is 97.9%.

The frighteningly efficient Eritrian economy, worth a remarkable 1,947 trillion Drachmaes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 238,998 Drachmaes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The image of Eritria's future is just a picture from last century, a favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts, the working classes live and die on the fields of the farming communes, and 10-year-olds who struggle with integrating by parts are considered slow learners. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eritria's national animal is the Phoenix, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Orthodox Christianity.

Eritria is ranked 5,990^th in the world and 150^th in the South Pacific for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 7,610.98 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
