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

The Federal Republic of Eralan is a huge, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its complete lack of prisons, daily referendums, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 315 million Eralanics hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 37.9%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Eralanic economy, worth 25.5 trillion Erelanic Rävs a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 81,012 Erelanic Rävs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Eralan City's back alleys are rife with sausage eating, citizens cannot change their light bulbs without approval from an international committee, foreign leaders with unpaid parking tickets are often refused entry, and both diets and economic output are growing leaner with recent restrictions to free trade. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Eralan's national animal is the Fox, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Eralan is ranked 46,553^rd in the world and 1,487^th in The North Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 157.12 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
