The Detachment of Ecalpan Dragoons is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Provost Tenryukov with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, infamous sell-swords, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 7.662 billion Ecalpans are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, corrupt government prioritizes Defense, although Industry, Law & Order, and Education are also considered important, while Welfare and International Aid receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fort Brunet. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.1%.

The frighteningly efficient Ecalpan economy, worth a remarkable 2,299 trillion kobans a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Information Technology. Average income is an amazing 300,069 kobans, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,252,057 per year while the poor average 46,942, a ratio of 26.7 to 1.

Wanting a better life for your child is prohibited by a clause in the criminal code, financial investors are noting a boom in artillery, rolling boulders up hills is the national sport, and students do more community service than homework. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ecalpan Dragoons's national animal is the kirin, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Ultramontanism.

Ecalpan Dragoons is ranked 325,454^th in the world and 75^th in Fukuoka for Highest Drug Use, scoring 2.87 on the Pineapple Fondness Rating.
