The Incorporated States of Elasto is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Tacey with an iron fist, and remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, pith helmet sales, and state-planned economy. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 2.598 billion Elastoins 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 large, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hundlis. The average income tax rate is 66.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The strong Elastoan economy, worth 157 trillion Eloes 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 Tourism industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 60,509 Eloes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Religious leaders order congregants to love any neighbour who is just like themselves, the state auctions off combat drones to fund war reparations, almost all of the nation's water is piped into the country from abroad for exorbitant prices, and the national anthem is a rather effective sleeping aid. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Elasto's national animal is the White lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Brabbitism.

Elasto is ranked 76,681st in the world and 834th in The Communist Bloc for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 2,793.55 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
