“High to the right”

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

The State of Greater Elliston is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its strictly enforced bedtime, public floggings, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 11.501 billion Greater Ellistonians 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 medium-sized, outspoken government prioritizes Law & Order, with Education, Healthcare, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Spirituality isn't funded at all. The average income tax rate is 25.9%.

The strong Greater Ellistonian economy, worth 499 trillion betales a year, is led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 43,442 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.9 times as much as the poorest.

Abortions are routinely performed in Greater Elliston's hospitals, skateboarding is punishable by heavy fines, teenagers are sent to jail for being out too late, and the government is avowedly atheist. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Greater Elliston's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Greater Elliston is ranked 118,356^th in the world and 1^st in Riga for Lowest Crime Rates, with 63.88 law-abiding acts per hour.
