The Third Abov of Etrius is a titanic, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Kyver Natalia Attar with an even hand, and remarkable for its soft-spoken computers, frequent executions, and public floggings. The compassionate population of 16.216 billion Etrians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Kiros. The average income tax rate is 98.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Etrian economy, worth a remarkable 2,634 trillion Kalroes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 162,493 Kalroes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The cruise missile launchers on the field hospital roof are purely deterrent in purpose, citizens volunteer for tax audits to avoid the 80-page Practical Assessment Survey Tool On Religions, sociologists ponder how baby-napped ethnic minority 'runaways' could have gone so bad so soon, and religious education is a new government priority. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Etrius's national animal is the Umpal Badger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Hestia-centric Hellenism.

Etrius is ranked 20,773^rd in the world and 14^th in The Hole To Hide In for Highest Average Incomes, with 162,493.18 Standard Monetary Units.
