The Kingdom of Eqquals is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Supreme One with an iron fist, and notable for its state-planned economy, pith helmet sales, and irreverence towards religion. The cynical population of 958 million Eqqualsians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New American. The average income tax rate is 42.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Eqqualsian economy, worth 54.5 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, fairly diversified black market in Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 56,904 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Public incontinence is a growing problem amongst the nation's women, the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, pretty hair and tight shorts are considered to be essentials for successful political lobbyists, and it is mandatory to learn evolution in schools. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eqquals's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Eqquals is ranked 253,060th in the world and 3,114th in the West Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -6.86 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
