The Socialist Autonom Federation of Elyia is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Chairperson Jem Ruvimovkski with a fair hand, and renowned for its otherworldly petting zoo, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 5.659 billion Elyians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Elysium. The average income tax rate is 79.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Elyian economy, worth 835 trillion monetas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 147,634 monetas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Refugees from other nations are flocking to Elyia's border, advertisements for jobs in the sciences run in fashion magazines, any citizen who cries is immediately assigned a psychiatrist, and the world still seems flat to some people in space. Crime is totally unknown. Elyia's national animal is the dove, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Elyia is ranked 7,604^th in the world and 6^th in The Free Nations Region for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 473.39 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
