The Theocracy of Ardlerld is a massive, pleasant nation, remarkable for its burgeoning elephant population. The hard-working population of 1.552 billion Ardlerldians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 18.6%.

The Ardlerldian economy, worth 68.1 trillion kronor a year, is led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Gambling, and Cheese Exports. Average income is 43,890 kronor, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ardlerld's national animal is the elephant.

Ardlerld is ranked 195,809^th in the world and 1^st in Warwick for Nicest Citizens, with 12 average smiles per day.
