The Fiefdom of Elklan is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Tony Tony Chopper with a fair hand, and notable for its rampant corporate plagiarism, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 2.325 billion Elklanians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Moselk. The average income tax rate is 91.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Elklanian economy, worth 295 trillion meeses a year, is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 126,670 meeses, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Workers for the environmental protection agency are patted down for tartar sauce every morning, excessive wheelchair ramps on government buildings have been compared to theme park attractions, giggling elementary school newspaper reporters want to know why Tony Tony Chopper is a silly poophead, and the Treasury has been accused of flushing money down the toilet. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Elklan's national animal is the elk, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Song of the Elk.

Elklan is ranked 5,806^th in the world and 111^th in the West Pacific for Nicest Citizens, with 42.99 average smiles per day.
