The United Socialist States of Eden Novae is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its public floggings, free-roaming dinosaurs, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 662 million Eden Novaeans enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Unity. The average income tax rate is 63.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Eden Novaean economy, worth 47.0 trillion digicredits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Book Publishing. Average income is 70,991 digicredits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The people elect the Supreme Court justices directly, it is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws, the country is governed by a clique of political insiders known colloquially as The Establishment, and EpiPen sales have skyrocketed. Crime is totally unknown. Eden Novae's national animal is the white griffin, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Eden Novae is ranked 45,888^th in the world and 1,002^nd in the South Pacific for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 4,679.63 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
