The City State of Elladesia is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space. The compassionate, democratic population of 13.521 billion Elladesians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Healthcare, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Athens. The average income tax rate is 18.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Elladesian economy, worth 477 trillion Minoan tala a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Furniture Restoration, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Information Technology. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 35,335 Minoan tala, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.

The government pours millions of Minoan tala into rehabilitation programs annually, sea side cafes are required by law to close during summer, the mentally ill are given high powered automatic weapons for "catharsis therapy", and the Federal Council of Elladesia has been announced as the new Head of State. Crime is almost non-existent. Elladesia's national animal is the little owl.

Elladesia is ranked 64,451^st in the world and 1^st in Mycenaea for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 3,704.39 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
