The Democratic Republic of Elarune is a colossal, genial nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate population of 2.645 billion Elaruneans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The medium-sized, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, with Welfare, Environment, and Administration also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Thalenmir. The average income tax rate is 49.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but inefficient Elarunean economy, worth 153 trillion Liraels a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Beef-Based Agriculture, Tourism, and Retail. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 57,841 Liraels, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It's a jungle out there, earthquake sirens are a leading cause of hearing loss, the government is washing its hands of alleged corruption, and you're never too young to learn how to lie with confidence. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Elarune's national animal is the Starshadow Wolf, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Elarune is ranked 296,843^rd in the world and 195^th in Democratic Socialist Assembly for Most Rebellious Youth, scoring -17 on the Stark-Dean Displacement Index.
