The Kingdom of Eldid is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by King Edric III with a fair hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, free-roaming dinosaurs, and irreverence towards religion. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 6.111 billion Eldidians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The minute, corrupt, liberal, outspoken government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Elda. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Eldidian economy, worth a remarkable 1,127 trillion sourons a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Retail, Book Publishing, and Soda Sales. Average income is an impressive 184,511 sourons, with the richest citizens earning 8.6 times as much as the poorest.

This year's hottest fashion trend is the Lese Majeste collection, foragers descend on national cemeteries for 'all-you-can-dig-up' extravaganzas, rumor has it that King Edric III has won three lotteries in a row, and residents are readily ratting out rats in restaurants. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Eldid's national animal is the golden eagle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Eldid is ranked 153,173^rd in the world and 42^nd in International Democratic Union for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 386.23 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
