The Dominion of The Elder Lands is a mammoth, socially progressive nation, notable for its state-planned economy and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, devout population of 5.787 billion Feys enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The medium-sized, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 23.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Elder Landsian economy, worth 191 trillion Obols a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Trout Farming, Gambling, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 33,028 Obols, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes and The Elder Lands recently decided against having a capital city. Crime is relatively low. The Elder Lands's national animal is the Linnorm, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Elder Lands is ranked 279,336^th in the world and 18^th in Sonnel for Most Advanced Law Enforcement, scoring 487.47 on the Orwell Orderliness Index.
