The State of Edenglassie is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its complete lack of public education and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 26.607 billion Edenglassieans enjoy frequent elections, which are uniformly corrupted by big-spending corporations buying politicians who best suit their interests.

The minute, moralistic, pro-business, outspoken government, or what there is of one, prioritizes Law & Order, although Industry is also considered important, while Welfare and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Westminster. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 6.4%.

The powerhouse Edenglassiean economy, worth a remarkable 1,109 trillion betales a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is quite specialized and dominated by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 41,681 betales, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 143,001 per year while the poor average 8,917, a ratio of 16.0 to 1.

Voting is voluntary and Edenglassie has designated Westminster as its capital city. Crime is a problem, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Edenglassie's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Edenglassie is ranked 246,672^nd in the world and 2^nd in Brisbane for Nicest Citizens, with 9.76 average smiles per day.
