The New Democratic Government of Esteneng is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Lehiyelton Giahiien Sboneuls with an even hand, and remarkable for its anti-smoking policies, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, devout population of 4.89 billion Estenengians 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 Healthcare, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Divergaudiburg. The average income tax rate is 75.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Estenengian economy, worth 348 trillion jailisos a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Automobile Manufacturing, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 71,287 jailisos, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Viewers get headaches from trying to read the screen full of small print warnings that precede most TV shows, cinemas play art-house movies to ever-shrinking audiences as film critics rule the industry, with increasingly clear skies nobody seems to mind the electricity bill going through the roof, and fruit vendors are encouraging a life of crime in their advertising. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Esteneng's national animal is the Pygosce penguin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Evangelicalism.

Esteneng is ranked 14,452^nd in the world and 666^th in The North Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 1,264.44 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
