The Eluvian Conspiracy of El Puppet is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Puppetmaster II with an iron fist, and notable for its compulsory military service, ubiquitous missile silos, and frequent executions. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 20.801 billion els puppets are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stage City. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 22.5%.
The powerhouse un puppet economy, worth a remarkable 1,629 trillion ducats a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Retail, Uranium Mining, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 78,342 ducats, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 314,783 per year while the poor average 13,057, a ratio of 24.1 to 1.
Fast food restaurants everywhere are under the control of a gigantic government corporation, people eagerly queue days at A&E to wait for their free healthcare, citizens select which government department gets their income tax ducats each year, and the nation is reliant on the principle of mutually assured destruction to maintain its security. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force. El Puppet's national animal is the defenestrator, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Better Times.
El Puppet is ranked 103,792nd in the world and 4th in Lemuria for Lowest Crime Rates, with 67.49 law-abiding acts per hour.
