The Nomadic Peoples of The Elsani City States is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its punitive income tax rates, devotion to social welfare, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 41.522 billion Elsanis are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 75.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Elsani City Statesian economy, worth 664 trillion electronic transfers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Retail, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is 15,993 electronic transfers, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Loans are available for students from poor families, the government tries to improve relations with hostile countries by sending gift baskets, artists are pillars of society, and the welfare administration’s new sweeping authority has forced the poor and needy to shop from pre-approved grocery lists. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Elsani City States's national animal is the mynock, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

The Elsani City States is ranked 111,598^th in the world and 3,703^rd in Lazarus for Most Primitive, scoring -28.11 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
