The ELF-Eladen Exchange Entrepôt of Economic Invincibility is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, ruled by The ELF-Eladen Consortium with an even hand, and notable for its ritual sacrifices, pith helmet sales, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 26.365 billion Eladeni are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The minute, corrupt, pro-business government, or what there is of one, juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of AIG Entertainment City. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Eladeni economy, worth an astonishing 14,245 trillion Petals a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Soda Sales, and Gambling. Average income is a breathtaking 540,337 Petals, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 5,060,865 per year while the poor average 4,863, a ratio of 1,040 to 1.

It's rumored that Marche Noire knows what the nation's generals eat for breakfast, babies are increasingly seen as a luxury, the experimental sculpture "Overtures In Dried Yeti Dung" has been declared a national treasure, and no cul-de-sac or trailer park is complete without a gambling parlor. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, probably because of the absence of a police force. Economic Invincibility's national animal is the Yeti, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Economic Invincibility is ranked 25,841st in the world and 17th in The Maritimes for Most Advanced Public Education, scoring 6,990.22 on the Edu-tellignce® Test Score.
