The Kingdom of Eleutherra is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by King Sahron the Rememberer with an even hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, keen interest in outer space, and hatred of cheese. The hard-nosed, devout population of 2.221 billion Eleutherrans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large government prioritizes Administration, although Law & Order, Welfare, and Industry are also considered important, while Environment and International Aid aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Elephandor. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 39.8%.

The very strong Eleutherran economy, worth 127 trillion Mastodons a year, is quite specialized and dominated by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 57,427 Mastodons, with the richest citizens earning 6.8 times as much as the poorest.

The populace harbors a fierce hatred of the metric system, unshaven men are viewed with suspicion in courts of law, books are often used as kindling, and citizens pray for sunshine so that they can use illicit sundials for timekeeping. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eleutherra's national animal is the Elephant, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Karumeth Faith.

Eleutherra is ranked 310,305th in the world and 1,586th in the Outback for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring -53.59 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
