The People's Republic of Elvisinia is a huge, socially progressive nation, notable for its public floggings, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate population of 687 million Elvisinians enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.
The large, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 64.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but inefficient Elvisinian economy, worth 33.1 trillion Eris a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Book Publishing, Information Technology, Cheese Exports, and Pizza Delivery. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 48,167 Eris, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
A death threat has replaced 'hello' as an official greeting in the nation, the nation is currently revamping its entire education system, centuries-old marble buildings are being torn down and replaced with corrugated steel wind tunnels, and dogs are encouraged to confront the psychodynamic roots of their desire to be "good boys". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Elvisinia's national animal is the Turtle, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Elvisinia is ranked 100,642nd in the world and 2,264th in the Rejected Realms for Most Subsidized Industry, scoring 1,402.03 on the Gilded Widget Scale.
