The Dominion of Elranda is a very large, efficient nation, remarkable for its rum-swilling pirates, daily referendums, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, devout population of 297 million Elrandans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Education, Industry, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Magecia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 23.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Elrandan economy, worth 31.7 trillion Coincoins a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Trout Farming, Retail, and Tourism. Black market activity is frequent. Average income is an impressive 106,627 Coincoins, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 389,093 per year while the poor average 20,747, a ratio of 18.8 to 1.

Mathematics majors learn about new ways to model their crushing debt, quiet professionalism has returned to the nation's armed forces, retirement homes are often fitted with luxurious suites, and Leader isn't a national brand. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Elranda's national animal is the Dragon, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Elranda is ranked 59,070^th in the world and 4^th in Illuminati Empire for Highest Average Incomes, with 106,627.47 Standard Monetary Units.
