The Eastern Coalition of Nations (ECON) was a faction in the Third World War on Earth. (Star Trek: First Contact)
- A coalition of nations in the Far East and/or Middle East would seem to be suggested by the name of this combatant, but the writers purposefully avoided associating ECON with any nations that currently exist, as to avoid putting any political perspective on the conflict.
- Since ECON was specified as being the enemy of the United States, its possible coalition members may contain some of the US's current or former rivals; China, Russia and North Korea in the Far East, and current combat zones Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as Iran, in the Middle East. However, it's possible that entirely different nations will have nuclear weapon capacity by the 2050s, as evidenced by tensions in newer nuclear nations like India and Pakistan.
