The Principality of Eterropia Islands is a very large, socially progressive nation, renowned for its irreverence towards religion and suspicion of poets. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 226 million Eterropians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 9.9%.

The Eterropia Islandsian economy, worth 12.9 trillion Eterrs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Uranium Mining, Retail, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 56,878 Eterrs, with the richest citizens earning 9.1 times as much as the poorest.

The government's foreign policy statements are less threatening than a World Assembly cease-and-desist letter, access to the woods is only granted to those who bring a small shrubbery, disadvantaged neighbourhoods have become no-go areas after sundown, and the Museum of Blackacrean War Crimes is located on "Blackacre Did Nothing Wrong Avenue". Crime, especially youth-related, is almost non-existent. Eterropia Islands's national animal is the Eterr Eagle.

Eterropia Islands is ranked 252,267^th in the world and 143^rd in The Western Isles for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 86.99 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
