The Grand Duchy of Eurelian is a colossal, orderly nation, ruled by Alaric Theodric Vaelmont III with an iron fist, and remarkable for its triple-decker prams, keen interest in outer space, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-working, cynical population of 4.323 billion Eurelianians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Velathorne-Nordholm. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 39.2%.

The thriving Eurelianian economy, worth 324 trillion kronor a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Information Technology, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 75,062 kronor, with the richest citizens earning 9.5 times as much as the poorest.

Couples kissing on the street are detained for 'unlawful exchange of genetic material', sociologists can charge whatever fee they like as the nation tries to find itself, music award shows include surprise polygraph segments, and citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eurelian's national animal is the Griffin, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is The Eurelian Concordant Church.

Eurelian is ranked 64,431^st in the world and 6^th in The Atlantean Federation for Most Secular, with 18.55 Atheism Rate.
