The Federal Republic of Exelandia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Santiago Videla with an even hand, and notable for its compulsory military service, pith helmet sales, and anti-smoking policies. The compassionate population of 5.261 billion Exelandeses are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ciudad De Exelandia. The average income tax rate is 90.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Exelandian economy, worth 534 trillion Dólar exelandeses a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 101,509 Dólar exelandeses, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Thousands of former welfare recipients are in a revolutionary uproar as the rest of society is enjoying a hefty tax break, old dogs don't have to learn new tricks but they have to prove they haven't forgotten old ones, the horniness of the great-horned buitre leonado is considered a national priority, and the government is lending a hand to private industry. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Exelandia's national animal is the buitre leonado, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Ateismo.

Exelandia is ranked 6,243^rd in the world and 151^st in Europe for Most Beautiful Environments, with 2,153.37 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
