The Garrison of The 106th Ecalpan Regulars is a mammoth, safe nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, barren, inhospitable landscape, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, devout population of 5.797 billion Ecalpans 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 relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fort Gold. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 21.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Ecalpan economy, worth 630 trillion kobans a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Information Technology, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 108,722 kobans, with the richest citizens earning 9.5 times as much as the poorest.

Every new building project has to undergo a five-year environmental impact study before it can go ahead, a flying elephant and Leader share the same nickname, murderers frequently escape punishment by claiming they were protecting their honour, and polygraphs are relegated to the dungeon exhibit in castle museums. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The 106th Ecalpan Regulars's national animal is the mantis, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

The 106th Ecalpan Regulars is ranked 133,329^th in the world and 4^th in Aureum locum for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,427.49 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
