The Queendom of Elsiar is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Queen Ankitha with a fair hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.94 billion Elsiarians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Khairagarh. The average income tax rate is 73.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The strong Elsiarian economy, worth 244 trillion rupees a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Cheese Exports, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 62,025 rupees, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Paper and ink publications are subsidised by the government to keep them in the black, government-run screening operations remove embryos with severe genetic disorders, protests are legal but strictly supervised, and grocery stores can be audibly identified by the giggling emerging from them. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Elsiar's national animal is the Bengal tiger, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Hinduism.
Elsiar is ranked 96,217th in the world and 13th in The Scandalian Alliance for Most Extensive Civil Rights, with 65.88 Martin Luther King, Jr. Units.
