The Endearing Attributes of Elite is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by you with a fair hand, and remarkable for its daily referendums, state-planned economy, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 17.228 billion Elitians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Levanovo. The average income tax rate is 74.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but sluggish Elitian economy, worth 380 trillion Elitian credits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology and Woodchip Exports. Average income is 22,110 Elitian credits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The nation's air force consists of strongly-worded letters folded into paper airplanes, children's TV shows are having a gay old time, conspiracy theorists allege that the government is spying on them through their carbon monoxide detectors, and droves of former desperados are applying to join the border police. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Elite's national animal is the labrador, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Elite is ranked 299,920^th in the world and 635^th in 10000 Islands for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 230.62 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
