The Constitutional Republic of Ebrein is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by President Rhodes with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.288 billion Ebreinians enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Education, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ladora. The average income tax rate is 65.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ebreinian economy, worth 356 trillion Ebreinian credits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 108,428 Ebreinian credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The national security service are a bunch of crooks, President Rhodes has returned as a hero from a brutal campaign to conquer the local beach, signs at the border tell international drivers where they can put their cars, and people reciting Shakespeare have become a common sight. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ebrein's national animal is the falcon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Secular.

Ebrein is ranked 181,995^th in the world and 2,208^th in the Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 2.67 kickbacks per hour.
