The Holy Empire of Elvwitand is a massive, cultured nation, ruled by Empress Euphyllia with an iron fist, and remarkable for its ban on automobiles, pith helmet sales, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 2.739 billion Elvwitandians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Amethyst. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 26.8%.
The thriving Elvwitandian economy, worth 247 trillion Dragot Coins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 90,299 Dragot Coins, with the richest citizens earning 7.0 times as much as the poorest.
Prison reforms have replaced communal luaus with communal loos, the nation's only university is the School of Hard Knocks, citizens who fail to follow the official national religion are executed, and virtually all of the country's economic activity takes place in Amethyst. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Elvwitand's national animal is the Woodland Hippocampi, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Communion of the Three Goddesses.
Elvwitand is ranked 129,054th in the world and 69th in Greater Dienstad for Lowest Crime Rates, with 62.83 law-abiding acts per hour.
