The Dominion of Eclipsus is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Governess Ravencroft with an even hand, and renowned for its closed borders, suspicion of poets, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 2.711 billion Eclipsians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed, including voting. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Industry, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eclipso. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 74.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Eclipsian economy, worth 541 trillion Yuls a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an impressive 199,519 Yuls, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 657,528 per year while the poor average 45,330, a ratio of 14.5 to 1.

Citizens are remarkably well involved in the political process, access to the woods is only granted to those who bring a small shrubbery, the country's famous rainforests are being bulldozed by the mining industry, and it's normal to start working life with crippling financial debt. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eclipsus's national animal is the Raven, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is Atheism.

Eclipsus is ranked 31,154^th in the world and 1^st in Eclipsa for Most Conservative, scoring 80 on the Bush-Santorum Dawning Terror Index.
