The Federal Republic of Encelladus is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by Darnell Turner with an iron fist, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies, sprawling nuclear power plants, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 11.31 billion Encelladusians 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 large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bremen. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 70.5%.

The powerhouse Encelladusian economy, worth 999 trillion Euros a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. Average income is 88,370 Euros, with the richest citizens earning 6.3 times as much as the poorest.

Rag-wearing teachers are often mistaken for homeless people, retail stores offer sales every hour on the hour, morning coffees are no longer the same since the disappearance of newspapers, and students are wary of colorfully decorated new teachers with names like Professor Pipsqueak. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Encelladus's national animal is the Falcon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Encelladus is ranked 57,759^th in the world and 2,576^th in Osiris for Most Developed, scoring 75.18 on the Human Development Index.
