The Community of Elite Bay is a huge, safe nation, renowned for its daily referendums, anti-smoking policies, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 487 million Elite Bayites 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Cuoasta. The average income tax rate is 73.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but sluggish Elite Bayite economy, worth 9.36 trillion Tacoes a year, is highly specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 19,213 Tacoes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Lending money has become a major liability, Leader is too busy listening to praise to get any work done, government expenses are beyond compare, and the number of eyes rolled per maths lesson is increasing exponentially. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Elite Bay's national animal is the Sunfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Elite Bay is ranked 302,822^nd in the world and 743^rd in 10000 Islands for Highest Average Incomes, with 19,213.07 Standard Monetary Units.
