The Holy Green Community of Eosylvania is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Oberon XVIII with an iron fist, and renowned for its closed borders, ban on automobiles, and public floggings. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 27.425 billion Eosylvanians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt morass — juggles the competing demands of Environment, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ama-Zone. The average income tax rate is 91.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Eosylvanian economy, worth a remarkable 1,780 trillion nothings a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 64,938 nothings, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Police reduce their paperwork by refusing to arrest anyone, foreign converts are illuminated by both missionaries and helicopter searchlights, captains must wait until all rats are safe before jumping ship, and endocrinology is a rapidly growing field of study. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eosylvania's national animal is the unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is paganism.

Eosylvania is ranked 125,522^nd in the world and 65^th in The World Rearranged for Safest, scoring 71.73 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
