The People's Republic of Ellietopia is a massive, socially progressive nation, ruled by Ellie with an iron fist, and renowned for its ubiquitous missile silos, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical population of 1.385 billion Ellietopians are ruled with an iron fist by the socialist government, which grants its people the freedom to do whatever they like so long as it doesn't involve getting richer than anybody else or challenging the government.

The large, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eleania. The average income tax rate is 91.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Ellietopian economy, worth 178 trillion caps a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is an impressive 128,560 caps, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Those who cut young children are told to cut it out, the national anthem's only purpose is to inflate Ellie's ever-expanding ego, prisoners can't do number twos without their "toilet buddy" present, and the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ellietopia's national animal is the elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Ellieism.

Ellietopia is ranked 5,624th in the world and 208th in The Communist Bloc for Nicest Citizens, with 45.52 average smiles per day.
