The Grey Havens of Shaizan is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Eldar Council with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, otherworldly petting zoo, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cheerful population of 16.922 billion Elves are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Valinor. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Shaizanian economy, worth a remarkable 4,800 trillion Castars a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 283,709 Castars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Government solves problems by tossing money at the nearest geek, doctors prescribe medicines but they rarely dispense hope or compassion, the "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The Valinor Times is sold out, and the government seeks peaceful forum with terrorists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Shaizan's national animal is the Great Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Iluvatar.

Shaizan is ranked 665^th in the world and 1^st in Hive for Lowest Crime Rates, with 183.78 law-abiding acts per hour.
