The Government of The Byzantine Federation is a colossal, pleasant nation, remarkable for its burgeoning Eagle population. The hard-working population of 4.677 billion Byzantine Federationians 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, Law & Order, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 17.8%.

The Byzantine Federationian economy, worth 209 trillion Golds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Pizza Delivery, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 44,765 Golds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Byzantine Federation's national animal is the Eagle, which can occasionally be seen dodging aircraft in the nation's cities.

The Byzantine Federation is ranked 96,383^rd in the world and 5^th in The Sons of Liberty for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,409.45 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
