The Democratic Republic of Elora Nation is a huge, efficient nation, ruled by wight with an even hand, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, irreverence towards religion, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 898 million Elora Nations have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Education, Defense, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of ELORA CITY. The average income tax rate is 29.5%.

The all-consuming Elora Nationian economy, worth 95.9 trillion ELNS a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 106,739 ELNS, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Knock-knock jokes regularly get removed from websites for being too edgy, Elora Nationian scientists are mixing chewing tobacco with bacon flavouring in an attempt to craft the perfect male snack, the internet has been placed under government control, and Wight has been self-declared as the Most Supreme Magnificent Overlord of Everything You Ever Saw. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Elora Nation's national animal is the Crow, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution.

Elora Nation is ranked 260,588^th in the world and 12,477^th in the South Pacific for Most Beautiful Environments, with 7.73 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
