The Republic of Elrun is a massive, safe nation, remarkable for its burgeoning hawk population. The democratic population of 3.787 billion Elrunians enjoy great social freedoms and frequent elections, where the majority of the populace regularly votes to increase its benefits at the expense of various hapless minorities.
The medium-sized, moralistic, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Healthcare, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 26.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but underdeveloped Elrunian economy, worth 99.2 trillion rubledollars a year, is led by the Furniture Restoration industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 26,204 rubledollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Elrun's national animal is the hawk.
Elrun is ranked 217,919th in the world and 6,015th in Suspicious for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 256.26 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
