The Third Empire of Eritria is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Prime Minister Panagiotis Palaiologos with an even hand, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, keen interest in outer space, and sprawling nuclear power plants. The compassionate, cheerful, devout population of 8.068 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, socially-minded 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 1,890 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 234,338 Drachmaes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Former stunt pilots are unable to pass the licence test to fly a drone, getting an autograph has become harder than ever, Prime Minister Panagiotis Palaiologos's used car is held together by bumper stickers that support the opposition, and the volume of paperwork used to complete a single environmental assessment defeats the purpose. 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 Christian Orthodoxy.

Eritria is ranked 296,568^th in the world and 3,792^nd in the South Pacific for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -11.74 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
