The Commonwealth of Erosi is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Thessia Caddel with an even hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, frequent executions, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.541 billion Erosians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Riosa. The average income tax rate is 97.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Erosian economy, worth a remarkable 1,606 trillion Chronocredits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an amazing 213,048 Chronocredits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's ambassadors often conduct their business in jail cells, arbitrary election rules are considered sacrosanct, the government regularly publishes lengthy reports on its own excessive recordkeeping, and military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Erosi's national animal is the Platypus, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Heathenry.

Erosi is ranked 4,916^th in the world and 203^rd in Balder for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 19,057.1 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
