The United States of Eldana is a massive, genial nation, notable for its avowedly heterosexual populace, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, devout population of 4.026 billion Eldanans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Blackwood. The average income tax rate is 88.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Eldanan economy, worth 647 trillion Dollars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 160,784 Dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Several citizens have complained about scientists abducting their pets for experimentation, hypochondriacs demand treatment for genetic disorders they don't have, party leaders rely on horoscopes to create "ticket balance", and citizens cannot change their light bulbs without approval from an international committee. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eldana's national animal is the Eagle, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Eldana is ranked 21,813^th in the world and 350^th in The East Pacific for Most Patriotic, with 45.41 flags saluted per person per day.
