The Federal Republic of Equaldia is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its compulsory vegetarianism, irreverence towards religion, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate population of 524 million Equaldians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Defense. The average income tax rate is 27.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Equaldian economy, worth 13.4 trillion euros a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 25,602 euros, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Vegetarianism is compulsory, the government is reining in public spending, the government violently suppresses separatist movements, and every computer glitch triggers an immediate counter-espionage response. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Equaldia's national animal is the zebra, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Equaldia is ranked 315,409^th in the world and 502^nd in Starlight for Most Developed, scoring 46.95 on the Human Development Index.
