The Shimmering Light of The Blue Elephant is a colossal, safe nation, remarkable for its burgeoning parrot population. The democratic population of 6.962 billion Blue Elephantians enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.
The large, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 41.1%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The Blue Elephantian economy, worth 292 trillion pounds a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Tourism and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 42,009 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.
Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Blue Elephant's national animal is the parrot, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
The Blue Elephant is ranked 73,294th in the world and 3rd in Travelling Region for Nicest Citizens, with 15.09 average smiles per day.
