Overview • People • Government • Economy • Trend • Analysis

The Frozen Tundra of Eliasonia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Elias of Babylon with an even hand, and remarkable for its punitive income tax rates. Its hard-nosed, hard-working, intelligent population of 6.569 billion 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.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it devotes most of its attentions to Defence, with areas such as Religion & Spirituality and Social Welfare receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Windhelm. The average income tax rate is 97%. A powerhouse of a private sector is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, followed by Tourism and Automobile Manufacturing.

Frequent fliers are obliged to submit to invasive security procedures by government security, the nation has welcomed its expats back with open arms, the government is pouring money into 'Operation Enduring Democracy', and large areas of Eliasonia are not accessible by the public. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is crippling. Eliasonia's national animal is the Gorilla, which is also the nation's favorite main course, its national religion is Orthodox Christianity, and its currency is the Eliasonian Dollar.

Eliasonia is ranked 11th in Amerikanisch Empiredom and 58,264th in the world for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 13 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
