The Queen's State of Ellis Lake is a gargantuan, efficient nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 30.65 billion Ellis Lakeans 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, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Industry, with Education also on the agenda, while Spirituality and International Aid are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 4.9%.

The very strong Ellis Lakean economy, worth a remarkable 1,268 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and led by the Beef-Based Agriculture industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Furniture Restoration, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 41,378 betales, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 281,321 per year while the poor average 2,223, a ratio of 126 to 1.

The tenet of free speech is held dear, voting is voluntary, and a large-scale revitalization of the education system is underway. Crime is a major problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Ellis Lake's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Ellis Lake is ranked 242,808^th in the world and 1^st in Ellis Lake for Highest Average Incomes, with 41,378.28 Standard Monetary Units.
