The Holy Empire of Elonsay is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its absence of drug laws and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed population of 29.512 billion Elonsayians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 42.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Elonsayian economy, worth 761 trillion Novas a year, is quite specialized and led by the Automobile Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 25,789 Novas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Same-sex marriages are increasingly common, punitive tariffs protect local industry, trouts are considered a delicacy, and the nation is ravaged by daily union strikes. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Elonsay's national animal is the trout, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Elonsay is ranked 135,011^th in the world and 6^th in Avalon for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 1,371.14 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
