The Treasure Hunting Anarchists of The Endless Eventide is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by The Ogliarchy of the Underworld with a fair hand, and renowned for its complete lack of prisons, enslaved workforce, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 5.345 billion Eventidal Meanderers live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Industry, although Administration is also considered important, while Law & Order and Environment are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Subterranean Megacity of Afterglow. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Eventidal economy, worth a remarkable 1,590 trillion Liquid Moonlight Starstreams a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Information Technology, and Gambling. Average income is an amazing 297,609 Liquid Moonlight Starstreams, with the richest citizens earning 8.7 times as much as the poorest.

A new generation of aquariumless hotels are being built under government supervision, The Ogliarchy of the Underworld's office has a newly installed Max-Man arcade game programmed by a 5th-grader, biotech companies are fined if their jumbled genetic sequences look too familiar, and weight loss clubs that guarantee losing a stone a month are talking about misplacing rocks. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. The Endless Eventide's national animal is the Illuminating Howling Star Owl, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Truth Looming In The Twilight.

The Endless Eventide is ranked 292,485th in the world and 11th in The Free Region for Nicest Citizens, with 0.14 average smiles per day.
