The Free Land of Elie Ducommun is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its disturbing lack of elderly people, frequent executions, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, devout population of 7.135 billion Elie Ducommunians 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, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 48.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The powerhouse Elie Ducommunian economy, worth 594 trillion Swiss Francs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 83,375 Swiss Francs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.
The government tries not to listen to the people unless it absolutely has to, all screens are equal but some are more equal than others, a bill to outlaw math homework has been submitted, and human sacrifice to the metaphorical altar of Mammon ensures national prosperity. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Elie Ducommun's national animal is the Peace, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Elie Ducommun is ranked 37,744th in the world and 13th in Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences for Most Stationary, with 1,209.19385805988 days.
