The New Democratic Government of Esteneng is a massive, safe nation, ruled by Lehiyelton Giahiien Sboneuls with an even hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, anti-smoking policies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, devout population of 4.813 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 73.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Estenengian economy, worth 354 trillion jailisos a year, is quite specialized and led by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Automobile Manufacturing, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 73,712 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 a very well-funded 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 29,200^th in the world and 1,043^rd in The North Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 83.35 law-abiding acts per hour.
