“Crossing That Bridge When We Get There”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The State of Eleazor is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 28.932 billion Eleazorians 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 tiny, pro-business, outspoken government prioritizes Industry, although Education is also considered important, while Welfare and Spirituality are ignored. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.0%.

The thriving Eleazorian economy, worth 734 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is highly specialized and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. Average income is 25,379 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 77,528 per year while the poor average 6,439, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

Voting is voluntary and the latest Harry Potter book is a bestseller. Crime is a serious problem, probably because of the absence of a police force. Eleazor's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Eleazor is ranked 122,864^th in the world and 1^st in Eleazor for Most Cultured, scoring 64 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
