The Confederacy of Elwher is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Fah Lo Suee with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, flagrant waste-dumping, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless population of 21.765 billion Elwherites are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Defense, with Industry, Education, and Administration also on the agenda, while Welfare and Social Policy receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Tanelorn. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Elwherian economy, worth an astonishing 11,832 trillion Gold Dragons a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Soda Sales, and Gambling. Average income is a breathtaking 543,641 Gold Dragons, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,502,497 per year while the poor average 71,523, a ratio of 35.0 to 1.

Drawing men's naughty bits isn't considered to be art, a stocking with a crooked seam or a tie without a full Windsor knot are grounds for instant dismissal, unshaven men are viewed with suspicion in courts of law, and computer users are buried daily in thousands of unsolicited emails. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Elwher's national animal is the Phoorn dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is None.
