The State of Ellis West is a colossal, pleasant nation, renowned for its burgeoning deer population. The quiet, industrious population of 9.332 billion Ellis Westians 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 Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Capital Heights. The average income tax rate is 13.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Ellis Westian economy, worth 458 trillion betales a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Trout Farming, and Cheese Exports. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 49,079 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.0 times as much as the poorest.

Tourists from around the world come to visit the country's famous rainforests, organ donation is compulsory, the alarmingly racist TV show 'Bigtopians Say the Darndest Things' is a hit, and Ellis West has designated Capital Heights as its capital city. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ellis West's national animal is the deer.

Ellis West is ranked 49,744^th in the world and 7^th in Nashville for Largest Populations, with 9.33 billion capita.
