The Springbok Republic of Eraver is a colossal, socially progressive nation, ruled by Paul Rozijiks with an even hand, and remarkable for its state-planned economy, complete lack of prisons, and unlimited-speed roads. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 6.137 billion Eraverians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Magnabrook. The average income tax rate is 97.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Eraverian economy, worth a remarkable 1,439 trillion Supercoins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Information Technology, Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 234,597 Supercoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Turning eighteen is often referred to as the 'Age of Aquarius', government officials sit helplessly as they are labelled 'Pompous Womples' by celebrities, the Fashion Channel can only be viewed on widescreen TVs, and the mob vote is a crucial electoral demographic. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eraver's national animal is the Springbok, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Eraverism.

Eraver is ranked 10,995^th in the world and 540^th in The North Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 10,782.88 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
