The People's Republic of Elgardia is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Orvich Milasenko with an even hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, national health service, and ubiquitous missile silos. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 4.745 billion Elgardians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Legalimux. The average income tax rate is 96.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Elgardian economy, worth 911 trillion Elgars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 192,104 Elgars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cosmopolitan citizens ask what their countries can do for them, every week is blindness awareness week, the sidewalk is used as an overtaking lane by city drivers, and you can call your arthritic immigrant neighbour for all your roof-tiling and guttering needs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Elgardia's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Dulhenism.

Elgardia is ranked 3,722^nd in the world and 54^th in The Communist Bloc for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 639.71 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
