The Republic of Eggplant Island is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Mister President with an iron fist, and notable for its parental licensing program, free-roaming dinosaurs, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 11.426 billion Eggplant Islanders are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt government is primarily concerned with Defense, with Administration, Law & Order, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Central Area. The average income tax rate is 60.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Eggplant Islander economy, worth a remarkable 1,727 trillion Eggplant Island Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 151,156 Eggplant Island Dollars, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

The invisible hand of the market wipes babies' bottoms, toddlers insist their pacifiers be autoclaved, the most notorious criminals are given the Consequences of Your Actions Award, and comedians who make offensive jokes have their ticket proceeds seized. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eggplant Island's national animal is the Eggplant Islander Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Eggplant Island is ranked 193,811^th in the world and 2,977^th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring zero on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
