The Kingdom of Edlibor is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by King Landon Vonvidil XXI with an iron fist, and notable for its keen interest in outer space, state-planned economy, and unlimited-speed roads. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 14.895 billion Edlibors are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Caliton. The average income tax rate is 71.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Edlibor economy, worth a remarkable 1,689 trillion Rodins 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 Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 113,421 Rodins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.2 times as much as the poorest.
Children are often punished for the sins of the fathers, the government has enacted freedom of information, kids feel more beat up than ever after a hard day at school, and fashion models are guaranteed to be 100% genuinely as anorexic as they appear on magazine covers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Edlibor's national animal is the Cursuler Hawk, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.
Edlibor is ranked 200,069th in the world and 122nd in Barbaria for Most Stationary, with 47.11999067652 days.
