The Republic of Eflad is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Hanna Tirng with a fair hand, and notable for its ban on automobiles, soft-spoken computers, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 7.751 billion Efladians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Münnen. The average income tax rate is 94.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Efladian economy, worth a remarkable 1,116 trillion Ippons a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Basket Weaving. Average income is an impressive 144,060 Ippons, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

One can wake up in Eflad and have breakfast in Bigtopia, convicted criminals are given free limo rides to jail, abattoirs are struggling with the directive to 'wait until the animal dies of a ripe old age', and the government's giant servers are often used as a tourist trap. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eflad's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Eflad is ranked 6,085^th in the world and 138^th in the South Pacific for Lowest Crime Rates, with 111.83 law-abiding acts per hour.
