The Fiefdom of Elklan is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Tony Tony Chopper with a fair hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, ubiquitous missile silos, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 1.826 billion Elklanians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The large, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moselk. The average income tax rate is 85.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Elklanian economy, worth 216 trillion meeses a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 118,383 meeses, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Bus ads propagandize causes ranging from sexual revolution to religious pogroms, the government is ignoring the latest terrorist atrocities in Moselk for fear of causing a fuss, national chefs believe that you can eat anything so long as you deep fry it first, and enemy agents are generally eliminated with extreme prejudice. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Elklan's national animal is the elk, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Song of the Elk.

Elklan is ranked 10,989^th in the world and 147^th in the West Pacific for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,622.79 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
