The Republic of Eldbia is a colossal, cultured nation, renowned for its museums and concert halls, smutty television, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 6.964 billion Eldbians 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 large, liberal, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 83.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Eldbian economy, worth 785 trillion francs a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 112,767 francs, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation sends criminals home to think about what they did, coalition governments are essential to passing new laws, the inside lane of every highway is for parked vehicles only, and pre-takeoff checks last longer than the flights themselves. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eldbia's national animal is the squirrel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Eldbia is ranked 324,365th in the world and 15,691st in Lazarus for Largest Cheese Export Sector, scoring -8.1 on the Mozzarella Productivity Index.
