The Kingdom of Episcona is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Charles H Spurgeon with an even hand, and renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, triple-decker prams, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, devout population of 11.97 billion Episconans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Corinthia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 94.0%.
The frighteningly efficient Episconan economy, worth a remarkable 1,567 trillion aureuses a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 130,923 aureuses, with the richest citizens earning 7.1 times as much as the poorest.
Minorities play dumb to get more welfare payments, it is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws, wait staff claim to like it when odorous customers flirt with them, and attempts to inform people about their unclaimed property are often mistaken for telephone scams. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Episcona's national animal is the White-Tipped Dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Reformed Episconan Church.
Episcona is ranked 286,714th in the world and 4th in United Christian Nations for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -13.89 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
