The Allied States of -Espeon is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, smutty television, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 1.316 billion -Espeonians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Education, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 66.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but underdeveloped -Espeonian economy, worth 46.1 trillion Eevee Coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Basket Weaving industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 35,057 Eevee Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The new Refuse Hills housing development is under construction, bike rage is all the rage, the army insists there is nothing gay about men in uniforms rolling in the mud, and 13-year-old internet trolls are treated as a threat on par with terrorists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. -Espeon's national animal is the Eevee, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

-Espeon is ranked 289,476^th in the world and 15^th in Eevee for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -8.25 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
