The Kingdom of Eastern Moria is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by King Aragorn II with an iron fist, and notable for its closed borders, enslaved workforce, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 1.371 billion Eastern Morians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The medium-sized, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Education, and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Spirituality and Social Policy are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Sindarian. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Eastern Morian economy, worth 269 trillion White Gems a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, and Retail. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 196,231 White Gems, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 635,218 per year while the poor average 45,776, a ratio of 13.9 to 1.

The government advises foreign diplomats to speak softly and carry a big bag of cash, the end of autumn is celebrated with a bonfire of designer bags, the backs of 'No Trespassing' signs were made for you and me, and Eastern Morian TV is considered cruel and unusual punishment in other countries. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eastern Moria's national animal is the Tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Alternate Universe Theory.

Eastern Moria is ranked 262,148th in the world and 686th in The Wellspring for Most Cheerful Citizens, with 42.18 Percentage Of Water Glasses Perceived Half-Full.
