The Galactic Empire of Eldrado is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by Imperator Mihael with an even hand, and notable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, unlimited-speed roads, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 18.392 billion Eldradonians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The medium-sized, corrupt, liberal, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eden. The average income tax rate is 99.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Eldradonian economy, worth a remarkable 7,591 trillion Aurelius Marks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Retail. Average income is an amazing 412,771 Aurelius Marks, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,621,197 per year while the poor average 71,419, a ratio of 22.7 to 1.

Bouncers at the door of the sweet shop warn five-year-olds not to cause trouble, the nation is renowned abroad for its love of blood and guts, the nation's infamous boot camp is more brutal than most battlefields, and the nation's museums are real penny-pinchers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Eldrado's national animal is the Dragon, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Eldradonian Christianity.

Eldrado is ranked 331,922^nd in the world and 261^st in The League for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 14.89 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
