The High Enchantressdom of Elvectica is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Her Holy Empress Adecyn VII with an iron fist, and remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, public floggings, and pith helmet sales. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 12.065 billion Elvecticans are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Vundrinsol. The average income tax rate is 97.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Elvectican economy, worth a remarkable 2,207 trillion Magicules a year, is quite specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 182,961 Magicules, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Vundrinsol is a police state during international summits, there's no escape from the rule of law... or police brutality, human sacrifice to the metaphorical altar of Mammon ensures national prosperity, and children gain their first sex education from reading the dictionary. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Elvectica's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is The Deanumtine Faith.

Elvectica is ranked 6,404^th in the world and 384^th in Lazarus for Lowest Crime Rates, with 110.61 law-abiding acts per hour.
