The Holy Celestial Death Angel of Elegarth is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by God Emperor Elegarth with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and prohibition of alcohol. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 33.559 billion Elegarthians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of EleGard. The average income tax rate is 74.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Elegarthian economy, worth an astonishing 11,149 trillion Gold Coins a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Uranium Mining, Arms Manufacturing, and Woodchip Exports. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 332,237 Gold Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

The nation has always been at war with Bigtopia, exorbitant spending on icebreakers breaks the ice at every budget meeting, nocturnal light pollution is mostly blue, and dentists routinely perform open heart surgery. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Elegarth's national animal is the Vampire, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Atheism.

Elegarth is ranked 301^st in the world and 4^th in the West Pacific for Largest Black Market, with 14,602 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
